That should really solve the problem, but as you can see the song control is set to "None".

I've actually had it work now, but it is RANDOM and unreliable!

Computer is Thumb-piano is a performance and an online album. It is a performance in the sense that I'll do an audio-visual performance playing the tracks live triggering video the 13th of may.
I bring the sansula into a sampler and do all kinds of things to it, making what I call ambient dream-beat ...

I only want looper to follow song tempo, recording 8 bars and to have no control over the song.
Basic looping following everything else and having stuff assigned to midi and keys (works).

I've been searching, however I did not find anything on this issue.
Small video of looper looping the first two bars out of 8 (sorry about the audioquality).

This is the standard behaviour I get, or sometimes looping the first bar, skips to the last ...

Now why did I not know this plug-in? He makes great plugs.

Will definetely take a look at this and thanks!

That's not the answer as that is what the sub-track already does. I wish for a simpler to receive the signal from a sub-track and trigger the sample from that.

Aren't you guys supposed to be really smart

Let me know if I haven't made it clear or if anyody knows whether it is impossible.

In my experience Live takes more CPU-power than Logic. At least I have only encountered CPU-glitches once in Logic. If I had been a fly on the wall that day I had asked "are you trying to make your computer crash"?

Also get glitches in Live in heavy projects but the CPU meter jumps a lot sometimes ...

I've previously had a simpler-track play a sample with midi from another simpler. This was to layer different snare sounds. They were in a group - not that I think it has any importance.

I now wish to make a simpler trigger a sample with input from an impulse sub-track. I think the problem is that ...

I've sampled a sansula (thumb-piano).
There's 25 recordings of individual notes - so far so good!

I'd like to pitch it out for the rest of the piano.
What I've done so far:
- Copied the samples to their respective places.
- Set rootkey detune individually for the samples that should be pitched ...

Thanks for the quick answers!

I plan on waiting for live 8, since I (by the time it is out) should be at a school, with the possibility of 50 % discount

This is (probably) very basic. I come from Logic and wish to use both sequencers, here is what i haven't figured out yet:

1. How do I create markers in the arrange?
2. Look at all of the automation of one track.
3. I miss Logic's sample editor. Is it possible to mark a piece of audio - listen to it ...
