I am an improvising sound artist working with field recordings and ambient sounds and I've found working with warp to loop clips adversely affects my sound, even using "complex" mode (which hits my cpu pretty hard.) I have experimented with follow actions, but the process is convoluted and difficult ...

i'm playing live, and improvising as well, so i don't use arrangement very often.
