For instance, if you have an Apple Loop stretched to repeat over 10 measures, you can split the loop so it repeats over the first 5 measures, then skips 2 measures, and then repeats for a second group of 5 measures.

Someone else figured out that you could record those musical instructions and save them to a file. Then, you could play that file back and control not only the original stack of synthesizers, but also any stack of MIDI-compatible instruments that you wanted.
