Hmm interesting. I thought Once would close and stop the loop. I’ll make the suggestion for this. I don’t want to hit 2 buttons to stop the loop.Yep, that did it.
So, hit Record to start the loop, then at any time hit Once. At the end of the loop hit Record again. The loop does not start playing immediately, but is available with Play and Once later on.
Not what I expected, but an acceptable replacement of the functionality of the II looper. Thanks again @chris!
