• The formula for a phrase loop is stored as part of a project
also after writing the result to a track/V-take. Therefore you
can edit and reuse the formula later.
• For a phrase loop that has already been written to a track/
V-take, it is not possible to write it again in part or to add
another phrase loop. In such a case, specify the entire
phrase again as a formula and write the entire phrase
again.

stereo, the same data will be written to both tracks.
