changing loop length with midi controller

When I connect a knob on my midicontroller to the loop lenth, i can only whitch from a very small loop to a big loop
the numers:
small loop: 0/0/1
big loop: 1/0/0
Can i change this settings?
I would like to change the loop lenth like in traktor, where i have more choice of the lengt of the loop.
I hope someone can help me

i want to know this as well.....this is about the 3rd thread with this topic and still no answers....i want to know how it is programmed.

I just started to add this to my template the other night.
I wonder if this would be something you would program on your midi controller?
an example would be changing th values for your controller.
instead of it scaling from 0-127
maybe 0-64 (or somthing)
I too would like to hear others thoughts on how they solved this one.

Racks and Macros come to mind.

Sorry, I had Simpler on my mind at the time. Are you speaking of clips or Simpler/Sampler loop length?
I'm guessing clips since my last statement made little sense. One needs to add more warp markers if you want to be more granular with your loop points.

I will try to make warp markers.
But i think it's so strange that it's different to change the loop length with my mouse and with a midi knob.

Warp Markers... give it a try.

When you automate the loop length, it is tweaked by a resolution as specified in the global quantization menu. (You can also automate the quantize resolution with another controller).
If you need finer sample-accurate resolution, another method is to render your loop to a wave file, then load it into Simpler/Sampler and modulate the loop length from there.

For very "traktor-stlye" loop length changes, click on the clip view's loop brace and use CMD+UP/DOWN, I guess use CTRL on PC.
This will double or halve the loop.
Not exactly what u're looking for but nice
