Using loops with Roland VS-1824CD

I'm planning on buying a Roland VS-1824CD but I first need to know how well this machine works with sampled loops. Does anyone know if it works similar to Acid or more specifically, can you cut and paste the loop and have the ability to change the bpm without changing the pitch? Or are you aware of any digital recorder that works like this? Thanks.

loops in PT?

prior to owning my mac I used to use acid to mess around with audio recording. I know that acid had the ability to stretch out a loop and adjust the audio properties to match the bpm of the project I was working on. Does PT have a feature like this? I am wanting to slow down a loop I have and was wondering if I could do it in PT or not.

thanks,

loops, click, and other such rantings

Okay so I am using Pro Tools - just starting to use drum loops - I have 3 collections from beta monkey which aren't too bad at all. I have the tempo set in Pro Tools to match the bpm of the loops I am using. I also set up an aux and use the built in click with Pro Tools. I usually drag in the audio from the workspace and then select and repeat it.
