0.001 BPM difference means it would take 1000 beats for the two loops to go
out by 1 beat. In a song of 140 BM it would go out by a little less then an
eigth of a beat every minute, that would probably be noticable, like Ra
said, re-trigger would so;ve that..

BUT It is possible that there is actually no difference in tempo at all: The
avaiable setting is 141.509, half of that is 70.7545, but the display could
just be rounding that figure to three decimal places making it 70.755.. I
remember reading somewhere that the knobs sometimes have a greater
resolution then what the display can show.. This would be interesting to
prove, Sioux, perhaps just run your program for at least five minutes and
see if it does actully go out at all.
