I have vetted the same 3 loops in L7 and in L8 with all the following aspects equal:
Launch mode = trigger, set to Legato, follow action timing = 1 beat and 3/16ths for all three audio clips, set to "other" change 1:1.
I tried to adjust the beats mode using transients or 1/16ths and by using various permutations of the transient modes or transient envelope percents, but NOTHING I can do so far gives me the same smooth results that i get out of L7.
(this sort of follow action loop building is one of my favorite things to do... i hope that either I'm missing something here or if this is a bug...there is an easy fix
here are links to examples using the settings described above:
L7 follow action loop
L8 follow action loop
here's a link to the alp's for v7 and v8 that I used in these audio examples
can anyone else confirm this observation?
