Re: Echoloop Presets?

[Phil Clevenger <phil.clevenger@gmail.com>]

Ahh sure Mark that's relatively easy :)

For the default set of presets in the Echoloop VST, there is no need to save them. Just set each one up the way you like and they will be recalled by that instance of the plugin anytime you choose one. You can rename each of them by clicking on the plug-in's title bar, then pressing Cmd-R.

Now - how to recall them in Ableton - let us know :)

Thx Phil... Hmm so Echoloop IS using Program Change for the presets?.. OK that suits me fine, I just have to figure out how to SAVE the presets... everytime I start up Echoloop its just using default settings... Any clues there?

Hey Mark - 

I struggle with this  a lot, although the only reason I would want preset access specifically would be to invoke certain otherwise inaccessible param changes.

I need at minimum a pushbutton solution for changing subcycle setting (2, 4, 8. etc), but would like access to a number of other things that live in menus (Insert mode, SwitchQuant, etc).

This week I am doubling down on getting control away from the computer and back onto physical knobs and faders where they belong !

I've looked at using preset banks, EDP style... but Echoloop wants a program change to access preset banks and I think Ableton is challenged there.

Tried using Clip Envelopes but they are  relative rather than absolute, and things get goofy fast because of that.

Now per Per's advice I am trying a MIDI clip envelope solution which looks promising - but it requires placing the Echoloop VST into a MIDI track - and now I can't seem to route audio to the plugin since it's in a MIDI track !!

GAH - still working it here. Good luck and let us know what you find. I'll do the same :)

Phil :)

Hi
while we´re on the subject of Echoloop, can someone tell me how one goes about creating and changing "presets", (to use an EDP term). I can see how to select different Insert Modes for example, but how do I change them "on the fly" from a foot pedal? I also need to get into SuS Record and Stutter mode too... (I can see how to do that too, but not how to make a "snapshot" of settings that I can bring up with one foot press.
On my EDPs I have one bank that has all the Presets I need, 1 thru 5 (then they are repeated on pedal numbers 6 thru 10, except the have Midi set OUT (for receiving clock from the drum machine instead of sending clock)

On my software setup (Mobius and Echoloop in Audio Mulch) I dont know how to do this and have to bend over and select stuff with the mouse, which is less than OK.
