simple idea on how to end a loop performance... how about putting your loop through a delay and turning up the send level to the delay as the loop is ending (or turning the mix from dry to wet if the delay is being used as a master insert)? > -----Original Message----- > From: Stuart Wyatt [mailto:stuart@solostring.com] > Sent: Tuesday, June 04, 2002 12:54 AM > To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com > Subject: Re: Loopers do it repeatedly (was Re: Fw: THIS IS FOR REAL. > (THIS IS A LOOP BASED MUSIC LIST!) > > > Its tricky to end a performance with a loop, however, the tricks that I > use are to build up a crescendo with the electric violin towards the end > of the piece, then hitting the stop button at the same time I hit a > power chord on the violin. > > The only other way that I have found is to assign a volume pedal to the > master volume, and do a realtime fade-out - but that sucks.
