Re: My Revised MAX/MSP Looping/Effects Rig

Well, it was pretty much there before I did this, via midi controllers, my 
expression pedals, etc. I didn't really need to look at the computer, 
except 
to verify once in a while that was I was controlling on the ground was 
occuring in the system. I took it a step further. No touching anything but 
my instrument, after I initially turn the computer on, turn on my system, 
and start to play.

If you have your rig setup correctly, you never have to look at your
computer.
