Okay getting to grips with things now. sooper looper is awesome now I am understanding it better anyone getting a horrible noise when using the variable play back speed? Is it possible to use multiple loops in the au version? as i can't seem to get this to work. I only get one loop no matter how many I choose? mmmm I really like super looper alot. Rax doesn't load up on my laptop at all so no joy there. cheers for help geoff On 25 Oct 2005, at 15:28, Per Boysen wrote: > On Oct 25, 2005, at 15:45, geoff smith wrote: > >> Thanks guys just one more question. >> All I will ever want is to have 3 sooper loopers >> That record to the same loop length. >> i.e. I hit record on one sooper looper >> then when I record on sooper looper 2 and 3 >> they always default to the same loop length, >> >> I don't want any other parameters quantised at all just the loop >> length of each sooper looper to be the same, >> but I would like to do this by setting this with the first sooper >> looper in realtime i.e. start playing hit record hit record again >> and hey presto all my looping in any super looper will now have that >> loop length. >> not sure if thats clear. >> I have read the sync documentation but am still confused as to how to >> do this. >> When I had two edps it used to drive me nuts trying to get the >> echoplexs to do this I am hoping sooper looper will be more reliable. > > > In your last post you were talking about multiple instances of SL, but > now when reading details on what you want to do I'm asking if it > wouldn't be better to use one instance of SL but with three loops? > Then they will all sync according to your settings at the top row loop > (SL GUI).
