Interesting.. A friend of me have programed a looper very much like this, but in 6 layers, that also have a mixer and effects: delay and reverb built in. 100% midi controlable. Syncs, and its super cool for anything you put into it, because of the layering. You can have diferent lenght of each layer/track. Made in Max. Ive convinced him to make a vst so we can use it in live, and hes working on it right now! PM me if your interesded.Angstrom wrote:hoffman2k wrote:Are the loop lengths predetermined?

Playing long sustaining notes into a session clip - wthey will cut off at the clip-end rather than wrapping around.
That makes it unusable in a lot of situations, I put my looper on a track which then routes to lots of recording tracks. I loop in the looper with wrap-around then I record the loop if it is any good into a clip. It's not ideal, but it's workable.
the above pic is an old version - but It will do for illustration. The buttons marked with numbers are bar lengths. Pressing 4 gives you a 4 bar loop, pressing 8 copies those 4 bars twice and gives you a loop of 8 bars.
I will now continue to work on V2, I slowed considerably because I thought it was "obvious" ableton would make a better one, with so many Live performers using looping.
He made it because he missed this function in live.
