Don’t hesitate to ask about this at the NI reaktor forum; they’re very open to beginner queries and generally more than helpful. Just be clear about how you’re defining “looping;” they use the term in a variety of ways over there, mostly using prerecorded sample maps, and not referring to live looping of instrumental input. I’ve searched myself for pre-built ensembles that act as live-input looping devices and there are some, definitely, but since I’ve always had hardware loopers since I started messing with Reaktor, I was never motivated to pursue any of them very hard. (It’s been a long while, which is why I’m not able to be more specific...) I found it more interesting to try to build my own delay-centric toys, scavenging from other’s work, mostly, and to use Reaktor FX for post-loop mangling, at which it is unparalleled. I put together a tutorial on FX in Reaktor based on what I learned and there’s some simple examples of long-delay devices in there. It’s one of the links below: To get you started: http://www.native-instruments.com:80/forum_us/search.php? searchid=2711329 http://www.nativeinstruments.de/index.php? id=userlibrary&type=0&ulbr=1&plview=detail&patchid=4139 http://www.nativeinstruments.de/index.php? id=userlibrary&type=0&ulbr=1&plview=detail&patchid=3581 http://www.nativeinstruments.de/index.php? id=userlibrary&type=0&ulbr=1&plview=list If you find anything cool, post back!
