I set a Looper to an audio track.
Fixed record length: 8 bars, then: Overdub (+).
Song control: none.

If song is playing and I press record in Looper, then it correctly records 8 bars.

If the song is stopped and I press record in Looper and then press play in song's transport controls,
then Looper records only 1 bar.

Is Tempo control active?

If Tempo Control is None and I press Transport control's Play,
Looper shows "Recording in progress", but not those filled rectangles like during most recording.
I assumed it would show recording progress as mentioned in the last message here:

If Tempo Control is other than None and I press Play, then length gets a new value.
If this is how it's supposed to work, that Tempo Control overrides Record comboboxes value,
maybe that Record value should become "x bars (variable length)"?
