Yep. Why should we get bogged down with a 12 string when we really only want to use six of them.
I made the following feature request, the 6th string, and they seem keen on it. Fingers crossed--
So Chompi has both gate and one shot playback modes for the samples, but it would be gigantic if a latch playback mode was also added so you didn't have to hold the key down to keep the sample looping. This could lessen the demand for a clock source/metronome as well as give us a quick way to build tracks in a looping fashion while also keeping them separate from each other (multitrack) so we could arrange them elsewhere. Workflow could go like this:
Load a drum loop into a Cubbi slot. Press it once to trigger it while in latch playback mode so it continues to loop until you press it again. While the drumploop plays in a loop, you could go to a Jammi slot and record your chords into the looper. Copy the chord phrase from the looper to a Cubbi slot and play it in latch playback mode, so now you have the drum loop and chords looping together. Clear the looper. Go to a Jammi slot and record your bass into the looper. Copy the bass phrase into a Cubbi slot and play it in latch playback mode, so the drum loop, chords and bass play looping together. Clear the looper. Repeat for all parts. This workflow also eliminates the need for an undo since, if you mess up, you just clear the looper and try again.

And as far as I understand, we'll be able to change the default playback mode for each bank of keys via the json file so you could have each key default to latch playback so you could eliminate that step. It could be simply: record into the looper, copy/paste the loop to a key, trigger it in time with the other loops, delete what's in the looper, record next part into looper.
