Well articulated! :-) Bill, I remember the cool things you did with the LP1, and I guess also with the EDP; jumping between HalfSpeed and FullSpeed while you were playing. That way you came up with nice syncopated rhythms and interesting time measures. That inspired me too and I tried to do it with Mobius but never had a any success as long as I was starting and stopping the process inside a cycle. But similar processing work fine here when scripts are started and stopped at cycle cusps; with the total running length defined within the script - no pedalling around except for telling the script to start at the next upcoming cycle cusp. But hey - you said you are going to use it for "fake shakers" and I can share something on that. I'm finding that to work ok here also BEFORE starting to the session. If I put the Mobius looper (standalone in no sync - all master - mode) into "speed -12" or "speed -24" I'm using a special script for my Record Button switch that has an IF statement to "set speed 0" if any other speed is going on. What this means that any sound I make for the first loop I will create is instantly being transposed up, speeded up, and played back as double speed/pitch audio - voilá: SHAKERS!!!! I love to also use it for kicking off a session with super fast speed break beats. I have several versions of such an alternate Record Button script, but here's a good one. Oh, and it also reverses your fist loop IF you make it with Mobius pre set into Reverse Mode.... can be pretty nice for a change. You can memorise a good speech and record it sounding retarded and have the first loop play back in totally proper American (good hint for your L∞Per's Brunch speech this year!) Sorry, enough un-looped ramblings now, here it is: !name Record Button Message Record to Speed/Reverse ---> GReset if mode != record Record else if inHalfSpeed Speed else if inOverdub Speed else if inReverse Reverse else if rateshift 24 RateShift 0 else if rateshift 23 RateShift 0 else if rateshift 22 RateShift 0 else if rateshift 12 RateShift 0 else if rateshift -24 RateShift 0 else if rateshift -23 RateShift 0 else if rateshift -22 RateShift 0 else if rateshift -12 RateShift 0 else if SpeedOctave 2 SpeedCancel else if SpeedOctave -1 SpeedCancel else Record endif !sustain 1000 Label sustain if sustainCount=1 GlobalReset endif -------------------------------------------------- In case you're already up and running with a looping session I guess a simple script to just dip down Speed for a Cycle will give you a chance to do some Fake Shakers or whatever. !name Faker Shaker Message Fake Me All Night Long Wait cycle Speed Wait cycle Speed next -------------------------------------------------- I have not tried this last one but my inner L∞P fairy whispers that it will be ok. Note that depending on what speed you currently are at it will take you to the other speed at the next cycle cusp, for a cycle's time. And a cycle in HalpSpeed means longer absolute time than a cycle in Normal- or DoubleSpeed. Greetings from Sweden Per Boysen www.perboysen.com http://www.youtube.com/perboysen
