Re: Performing with Multiple Looped Sections

["Travis Hartnett" <travishartnett@gmail.com>]

I use an EDP for that.  Of course, you have to build up the sections in real time.  Were you wanting to bring some canned loops with you and them integrate those into a peformance with some overdubs?  It only has one output though.  What signals are you wanting independent control over?

Hello.

I'm looking to finally invest in a looping system, but wanted some advice on which hardware or software device would suit my needs.

I've seen numerous videos and performances throughout the years of people looping. But I don't think I've ever seen someone use multiple loop sections that transition from one to the next. Usually, the musician is looping the same drumbeat and adding/subtracting instruments.

What I'd like to do is have loops that represent the verse, loops that represent the chorus, loops that represent the bridge - and be able to switch back and forth between the sections in real time, with the ability to add/subtract sounds to each section.

Additionally, a device with multiple outputs is preferred, so that the house PA can mix the signals properly... unless there's another workaround I'm not thinking of.

Any help/advice/suggestions will be appreciated.

Thanks
