mac looping software (ie acid)?

["tony moore" <moorelab@hotmail.com>]

hey folks,

hope everyone had a good holiday. i'm a recent mac daw convert. with my 
old 
pc daw, i used acid to compose loops and drum programs. it's a great tool, 
but it won't work on a mac. you can almost run it using pc emulation 
software, but then you can't run any mac recording software at the same 
time, which defeats the purpose and the utility of acid. is anyone aware 
of 
similar looping software for mac? i found a rough work around by using 
acid 
on a laptop and going out of the opcode usb box and into my digi001/mac. 
it 
makes for rough composing, but i lose all synch and have to play 
everything 
in real time to acid. i guess i could record my instrument loops as .wav 
files, import them into acid, and then... but geez, what a non-musical 
hassle!

thanks for all the great replies on my arleta, ca query! we're looking 
into 
other areas to live and then commute to arleta for the day gig. i'll be 
going out for a week or so to visit in march. anyone willing to give a 
midwestern neophyte a tour? i'll buy dinner :-)

have a happy new year!

tony
