Re: sooperlooper happiness

hello per!

it is large, i agree. i would like a "mini" version since 4 stacked sooperloopers take up a lot of room! i actually didn't open the GUI at all, just had it in the background. the SL GUI doesn't launch automatically when you open a Live set. i'm sure i can do it with a script, but didn't get around to that yet. as a result, i could not see a thing that was going on!

i did a combination of launching MIDI clips inside Live, and old fashioned foot control.

there was one "glitch" where SL didn't seem to receive MIDI commands when i first opened a set (i tend to perform 2 pieces using one Live set and might launch 4 or more sets per performance, using MIDI + Applescript). i had to manually click on "launch GUI". but once it was launched i closed it again because i didn't like it blocking my view of the audio channels (i like to catch if anything goes into the red).

i still need more practice executing perfect loops. the Repeaters are so forgiving! sigh...

my best from california, zoe

Hooray!

Good to hear!

Are you using SL's GUI to keep track of things? (I'm finding it a bit

huge for my MacBook+Logic8).

Are you using many Live MIDI clips that send control events into SL?
