Well Dave, you are asking something momumental, yet simple. I have been "software" looping for the past 3 years, and I have not found anything that will "interactively" record and loop at the same time. Sure there is Cool Edit Pro, ACID and ReLoop, but these software titles are either "half way" there or not "quite" what you are looking for. Most of those apps will play "loops" that are pre-recorded, and trimmed up. In addition, they can't be "triggered" in the normal sense. The closest to your request IMHO, is PCDj Red. Hooked to the Numark DMC 1, this is a good looper, of sorts. But, again, the loops must be pre-recorded. ReLooper, will play a myriad of your "pre-recorded" loops, but this must be "mouse" operated. Maybe you have given me a "software" project to develop ?!? Ok, all you C++, and Visual Basic folks, can ya think of anything, or even come up with a design that would facilitate this new "software" looper ? Lucien E.

I'm basically looking for something where I can push a button (preferable a footswitch) to start recording, and press a button to stop recording and loop. I'd also like to be able to overdub. I'm interested in software for the PC (not necessarily windows). Mac might be interesting too as a reference (I don't own a Mac). I want to avoid the push a button to record, push a button to stop, set loop area, repeat cycle I get with Sonic Foundry and Cakewalk products. I've searched through Altavista and Yahoo, and I find lots of references to CDLooper, the band Looper, and various people who's last name is Looper. I checked through the mailing list archives, and the software references there seem to be to updates for the EDP, and commentary on the mailing list software. Alternatively, can anyone suggest other terms to look for this by. What do these things get called besides 'loopers' thanks -daveh -------------- Dave Hastings dhastings@earthlink.net "When in doubt, don't major in physics" Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle according to Joel Achenbach _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp
