Just playing a wav file, looping nicely,and it generates a
"needs to close" dialog - I'll play with it somemore and see if I can figure
anything out.

Oh, really? Hm. I will see if it has something to do with the
audio library I am using. Can you help me identify the problem by telling at
what point does it crash?

Presenting yet another looping software: Tape Loops
Hello guys!
I would like to present to you yet another
looping software, but at the same time a new (old) approach to
it.
http://www.louigiverona.ru/?page=projects&s=software&t=tapeloops
The
software is called Tape Loops and basically what it can do is play a sound
either looped or once. The app is very minimalistic and how it
works is
you start up several instances of it - so each deck is independent - and
then just play each of them, thus creating a live mix.
Tape Loops has a
lot of interesting features, most notably Random Play function and
clustering. It is possible to synchronize decks
automatically
too.
What's good about this software is that it
basically emulates the tape loops situation. You couldn't really
synchronize them (only manually) and all
you could do was control the
length of the loop (by using, say, two decks and one tape loop over them
and placing the decks apart at the desired
distance), and of course,
what to record on those loops.
At the same time, the app is very
visual, so if you are performing, the audience can see exactly what you
are doing. Each sound is represented by
a "deck", not just some built
in mixer. Also, you have no limit to the amount of opened loops (but your
computer memory).
Anyway, I do think that a lot of you might find
this app interesting and useful.
Louigi Verona.
ps: I do
plan to make a second version with one app and loops opening inside as
small windows. it would allow for easy synchronization and many
other
functions which are not technically possible in this
implementation)
