Save your braincells. I think you're looking for somehing like the DJRND2 by Emmanuel Perille. It might not be everything you want, but what is? There's info on the Looper's Delight site at: http://www.annihilist.com/loop/tools/DJRND2/DJRND2.html - Larry >among the features would be the ability to visually arrange the loop >fragments as they are entered, and to transition between scenes >gradually-- >fade this snip in over n bars, for example.. with a performance-oriented >user interface... > >backwards-- >the idea extends the basic delay line to a more acid-like concept where >you >have fragments which together form the piece.. the fragments all loop, are >all synced together and with midiclock. fragments could initially be >tapped >in. > >one thing id like to work on is having switching between multiple >outputs-- >so that you could potentially build sections of the piece in your own >private headphone mix and then fade them in to a mainmix, or blast them in.. >multiple synced musicians working together could coordinate pieces and >work >on different substructures within the soundspace simultaneously. > > >of course, its just a lofty dream. but manifestation is inevitable when we >see the illusion of rhythm. > > >btw if anyone is interested in collaborating, pls let me know. im doing a >little work for David Z. of Cycling74 and trying to hook into CNMAT in >Berkeley so that the resource pool builds.. The MAXMSP people had this >idea >awhile ago and toyed with it. > >in lakech >-jan > >-----Original Message----- >From: eric <eobertha@inreach.com> >To: Loopers-Delight@annihilist.com <Loopers-Delight@annihilist.com> >Cc: Loopers-Delight@annihilist.com <Loopers-Delight@annihilist.com> >Date: Tuesday, February 08, 2000 9:13 PM >Subject: looper-friendly MIDI sequencer? > > >>howdy. >>I use MOTU's Performer (not DP) - a not-so-aptly-named piece of software >>IMHO.
