Re: Live Performance Hardware Looping Equipment Question - NeedHelp



Akai Mpc2000
hardware sequencer and sampler.
Thats what i use live and do what u'r asking.
simply create a series of sequences which u can then jump between via the 
16
pads, the sequences repeat until u hit the next one.
e.g. seq 1 consist of a 16bar 32track performance this will loop until i 
hit
a pad to select seq 2 which is a 2bar 4 track performance which will loop
until i hit .....
so simply hack u'r song up into chunks, load it into the MPC.....
u get the picture.
