Hi Rick,
This is Link (devine machine conceptor) ,
I could easily add a realtime record into devine machine ,
but there is one problem :
- how many loopers would go on stage with a computer
better than a little rack ?
Well anyway I could add some midi keys to start
recording/overdub.. on start of bar (with some options eventually) , then loop
back while the devine machine Liveloop! feature could
support all other looping live triggerring....
So I need everybody to tell me precisely what would be
needed on that to bring happyness to the community ;) (I mean conception
details)

Subject: Ableton LIVE's ability to loop
in real time
My brother Bill and I were discussing Ableton's LIVE today and
it is my impression that you cannot looping in real time in that
program. He thought you could and I didn't see the NAMM demo of this cool
program this year.
in other words, you can play loops and move
them around in real time and you can record a passage into the program in
real time, but I don't think you can make a loop on the fly that will
keep looping if you don't make a mouse move.
Does anyone know the
answer to this question?
Also, I have noticed that Cycling 74's
RADIAL (soon to be released on the Mac side) and The DEVINE_MACHINE (for
PC) both have fascinating realtime manipulations of loops but do not
have the ability to loop in real time either (like the most basic DL4 or
Loopstation).
Why is the computer world lagging so far behind the
hardware loopers in this respect?
It would be so completely
incredible to have the ability to use something like LIVE with realtime
loop capabilities.
Color me naive, but isn't it all just software
programming?
Set me straight, experts!
yours,
Rick
