#LOOPY HD OVERDUB PRO#
Are you currently using a hardware looper? Do you like its control setup? If so, it's probably a good idea to start by duplicating that arrangement with Loopy Pro and a controller, to make the learning curve shallower. I actually use the physical buttons on my hardware loopers for those functions, to reduce latency, and then program additional or "weird" functions into the MC8.Įxactly how you set up a foot controller is going to depend a lot on how you set up your Loopy Pro session, which is itself going to depend a lot on what your looping workflow is (I personally expect to build a number of custom sessions, as though I was designing custom hardware loop boxes for different applications, and set up controller banks on the MC8 to match), but a couple of questions for you right off to narrow things down: My general feeling is that it's better to have a consistent set of "basic" loop controls and use separate buttons to step through individual loops this will make it easier to build muscle memory for the foundational actions of building a loop. I've owned a bunch of the major hardware loopers in the past (original Boomerang, Boomerang III, EDP, Repeater), and my current rig includes an Eventide TimeFactor and a Looperlative LP2 in addition to the looper in my Line 6 HX Stomp, all controlled by a Morningstar MC8. The top left switch is for selecting Pacer presets but all other switches are up for grabs. How would you go about setting the pacer up to control loopy or another app. What physical controllers do you use or would want to use for live looping? Or track selection buttons(increment up and down to select the track) and have dedicated record/overdub, mute, play/stop switches for selected track? (obviously it would depend on the amount of buttons you have available.) Is it better to have individual switches for each loop track (Switch 1 controls track 1, overdub record, long press switch to mute or clear)?
I picture Loopy Pro a setup that would combine tabletop and foot-deal controls.ġ. Boss does a lot with just 3 stomp box switches on their RC-500. Regardless of app, I am sure there are some best practices out there. Audio routing would be a whole different discussion. Mainly looking at controlling the loopers or what hardware loopers people use, as opposed to audio routing. I mainly want to pick peoples brains and get the discussion rolling for how people who do live looping, currently setup with looping. I recently bought a Pacer midi foot controller.
#LOOPY HD OVERDUB SOFTWARE#
I wanted to open a break out discussion on best practices, real world experience for controlling looping software or hardware. With Loopy Pro on the brink of releasing "soon".
