Re: New Looper: Loopy Llama

[David Trenkel <improv@peak.org>]

I downloaded Loopy Llama this morning, and have been playing with it 
all day, lots of fun! I'm running it in Live, thus far it seems stable, 
and very useable! I like the reverse feature.

BTW, I'm playing a gig tomorrow at Luckey's Club Cigar, in Eugene OR, 
with the 7/11 Quartet. I'll be doing laptop looping in Live, along with 
playing bass and keys. It's my first live Live outing. Also in the band 
are Tim McLaughlin (trumpet/guitar), Matt Calkins(tenor/soprano 
sax/bass) and Steve Weems(drums). It'll be a largely free-improvised 
show.
