Re: looping question

[Alexandre Klinke <alexandre.klinke@gmail.com>]

Hi Per, thanks for your quick response!
Do you know if there's a way to do that in Sooperlooper? I don't use
Mobius but I recently downloaded it, so I will try it in the next days
to see how this "previous/next loop" feature works.
Thanks again!
Alex
