Which would be kind of the point of an un-synched mode. Desync would
only happen when a user disables the Sync parameter. If a user
changes the new BPM control gradually by hand or via automation, the
loop will also no longer line up, and lose sync.

By having control over BPM *and* sync on/off, there would be a wider
range of possible Time values, while still having essentially as
fine-grained, or coarse, control as one wishes. That's why I'd have
preferred that. Maybe if you'd still want to implement the desync
option... Anyway, it's your software, if you don't, I won't bother you
anymore :p

One things I noticed with the new code, pulled just now: The GUI BPM
Control is 40 to 240 now (cool, thanks!) but the parameter is still
60..180. I think it's in masha.ttl.
(Aside: One parameter is called Pass in the GUI, but Dry/Wet Mix in the
parameter description. I think Pass fits better.)
