question for max/msp gurus ? [software loopers redux]



Title: question for max/msp gurus ? [software loopers redux]

I know there are a few Max/MSP users on this list, hopefully some have attained "guru" status :) To gurus and non-gurus alike I would ask - have you solved the problem of making a buffer~ whose length is determined by the first "tap" - i.e. I'd like the buffer~ to work in the classic looping sense, not just be a sampling looper of predefined length. All the looping apps I have seen so far in Max/MSP (jhno's looper being the primary example) have pre-defined loop lengths. My dream, and I'm sure that Max/MSP must be capable of this, is to reproduce something like the Repeater in Max/MSP.

Another idea that occurs to me as I type this is to use some of the "bridging" externals between Max and Supercollider or C-Sound - maybe these languages are more suited to looper creation and the looping module could be run inside of Max (Max taking care of the UI, midi control etc...).

Finally has anyone tried this app out ?

(if only this were available for Max/MSP!)
