Click inside them to select them and make this function active. Then assign some MIDI event to the "Tap Record" button. Under the correct settings a Tap Record command will start a recording (for the length set by the combination of Beat Divisor and (number of) Beats. When the recording is reaching the end of the loop the Input Level will automatically return to zero, and your noisemaking will not be overdubbed into the loop - only heard on top of the loop. > Do you control Augustus with a midi remote controller? yes > Have you had any problems with that?

You need an additional setting i Live's MIDI preferences. You have to tell Live which MIDI input it shall listen to for Track Input! After setting that up you can use any MIDI Track in Live to direct any MIDI Input directly to the looper plug-in (here Augustus Looper). So, given you use Max as the MIDI controller (ie sending out the MIDI events for AL to react on) you hold down the mouse button over a MIDI Track's input field and choose the relevant Max MIDI output and then you hold down the mouse button over the same MIDI Track's output field and choose first the Audio Track hosting the AL plug-in and secondly the AL plug-in. ---> Next level info: With Augustus Loop under Live there are two ways of targeting looper parameters for MIDI control. One is to use Live's internal MIDI mapping. Doing this will overrun the plug-in's pre configured bindings of events to parameters. Another way is to read in the AL manual to find out exactly which MIDI events are pre configured to control certain parameters values. Then you send the relevant MIDI directly into the plug-in. My experience is that this works better although it's a little bit more tedious to set up (I just hate programming and setting stuff up).
