Augustus Loop's GUI (was Re: Loopy Llama in Live 5.2)



To be honest, I wasn't complaining too hard about the
Augustus Loop GUI; there are loads of parameters to
control, and the GUI is much better than Live's folded
view of the parameters. That said, it's also really
good to be able to view several instances at once, as
you can with SooperLooper. Typical - we want
everything, and then some ;) !

I seem to prefer using my ears to a loop waveform
display, even with samplers - I never seem to trim
just right until I just ignore the display completely.
That said, others may like to have it.

At the moment, you can "skin" AL by replacing the
graphics for the controls and backdrop - maybe, taking
the skin idea further to allow for custom sets of
controls, along with a switch to see the full GUI,
would be an option ? That way you could customise the
GUI to see the controls that are useful for a
particular situation rather than committing to a
particular subset.
