Hi Per this is an interesting topic, to me as you know I would like to be able to loop with just my laptop. I hope you don't mind if I ask you some questions about your general approach as I have been looking for a musically interesting(to me) and reliable way of looping on a laptop. I have just bought live 4 and so will be checking this myself as I had no results with augustus and logic other than crashes! 1st off love the demo clips, guess thats whats got me writing! You are using Augutus loop in ableton live 4? I see you used multiple example of augustus loop in live i.e. having a 2 channel looper (2 augustus loops) How do you find controlling them with your fcb 1010? any limitations? good working practices you have come accross? i.e. how are you controlling the two different examples of augustus loop, different midi channels....? I love the way you have assigned the pitch to footpedals sounds great. > If you mean the clips I posted, they run two instances of Augustus > Loop; one feeding Pluggo Rye and the other feeding Pluggo Speed > Shifter.

I am assuming from your post that you are changing the pitch of the loop in augustus loop is that correct and if so what are you using for sync settings in augustus? have you got it sync'd to live and if so what happens when you start changing the pitch of loops. Interesting hearing what you said about pluggo stuff I gave up with it in os9 as i wasn't that impressed, it was all a bit too glitchy at that time in my life, will check it again. best dishes geoff On 14 Feb 2005, at 19:37, Per Boysen wrote: > Hi Friends, > > When Pluggo 3.5 arrived last week I found two plug-ins that I like > very much.
