HI, I'm sorry about that crap picture I posted earlier. Here are three serious looping rig charts: 1) http://www.looproom.com/bilder/2007loopingrig.JPG is a recent in-the-box laptop rig I'm testing out at the moment. Since I have replaced a lot of cable patching in my old (physical) rig with scripts I let the script window stay open on this screen shot. The schematic is pretty clear if you look at the Bidule setup. 2) My actual recent rig is not on picture, but if you take the Bidule setup on the picture (above link) and replace Guitar Rig 2 with TC Electronics FireworX it will be the same thing. The point in both these setups (1+2) is that the effect processing is beat synced from what I play (as opposed to the other way around: "trying to sync your playing to some machine") 3) http://www.looproom.com/bilder/mini_rig.gif is an old rig I used back in 2004. EDP, REpeater, analog filterbank (Repeater and Filterbank syncing to the tempo set by the EDP's first loop). This rack monster looked something like this: http:// www.looproom.com/bilder/looping_rack.gif Finally: I also took on a (failed) pilot project earlier this autumn, trying to use only VST plug-ins. This setup chart is online at http://www.looproom.com/bidule7patch_pboy.JPG It worked fine, but I the 2 GHz single CPU laptop was too slow to run it safely during performance. Note "The Bidule Audio Switcher Trick" used here; a good tip (thanks to Paul Haslem for originally posting that tip to this list). It saves you 100 % of the VST plug-ins you are not playing through. An excellent way to use Bidule as a in-the- box effect patch-bay.
