Re: Live Looping versus using Pre-Recorded Loops

right, this makes it more complicated: Ableton called their app Live because they think of live mixing of samples as opposed to classic DJ
there is a Live PA genre (even more complicated because PA does not mean public address system as the speakers on a stage are called)

BUT if i start with 6 "canned" loops in, for example, my octatrack and i then start out to mangle and resample them in an Improvised live manner, then it would be live looping again.. sort of..
With the right peice of gear pre-recorded loops are more like waweforms... you can create totally new improvesed music where the loops are just the starting points.. I will record a peice like this as soon as a have time and you can judge if it qualifies as live looping :-)
