Helllo and a reply to a question



Hi all

Haven't posted for a while blimey it was a year ago since Zurich!  
Fantastic 
memories.  Anyway so thought I'd put my 'two pence worth' in on this 
one... 
I use Ableton Live without any pre-recorded samples or sequence setups. 
Live allows you (just about) to do whatever you can think of, imagination 
is 
the main restriction. To say you could 'push software so far that it can 
be 
used as live looping' is out of date.  The process of looping in Live is 
simple and as easy as using a delay pedal or peeling a ripe orange.  
Loopers 
Delight helped me understand what I required for my setup, if you want to 
email me please feel free to do so I will gladly rant a bit more and try 
to 
help you out

However...

Just remember there is loads of info available in the archives of this 
mailing list, if you like looping and stick around you will see these 
types 
of emails come around and around and around and around and around...a bit 
like a .................LOOP!!! ARRGGHH!

...no escape...

What's great is that it is not a genre of music it's just a technique, 
there 
are so many different types of music that can be created from it...Loop On!

Research and enjoy
