another softstep 2/Looper question
Posted: Fri Nov 30, 2018 11:02 am
hi - i been using my softstep with a MFL patch for ages now to navigate my live session and record and trigger midi loops with my midi bass which i record into clips in the session and it all works fine.
recently i've started to use a different instrument and a different approach - i've never used the Looper before and i want to set up four audio tracks with Loopers on them so that i can record audio loops coming in from my new Berimbau ( )
can i ask any other softstep 2 users how they set up the softstep for live audio looping with Loopers? i'm having poor luck so far, as an experiment i've tried setting up one of the softstep pedals to send a 'foot on' CC when pressed and i've assigned it to the big button on the Looper, but it doesn't want to work properly - i just want it to Record, Play, Stop and Clear on each push of one pedal, but it seems to need two taps to get it to start recording and then wants to overdub but i don't want it to do that (it does this even when i've selected play after record in the Looper settings). should i be sending something else instead of a CC?
can anyone give me any examples or point me in the right direction? does anyone have a MFL patch they could share with me? i've checked on maxforlive.com and the ones there all seem pretty complex and not what i'm after
thanks for any help
