I'm not talking about using CDs for backing tracks. I wouldn't do that. Believe me, with a looper, drum machine, guitar, bass and guitar synth, I can make plenty of noise. I'm saying produce a total track *that includes live looping* that's delivered on a CD. I'd still have the joy of playing with my looper in an interactive way, just not at the show itself. I'm just wondering if that makes a difference. I guess I have to try it and see.
