Re: finally a MIDI looper?



So it doesn't sound like M-loop can do this, but someone building the
ultimate MIDI looper could take advantage of one thing that's hard to do in
audio: You can watch for repetition by the player.

With an audio looper, you basically have to rely on presses of the record
button to set the loop length possibly with some minor algorithmic 
tweaking.

With a MIDI looper, you can watch note values for repetitions which should
allow one to better find the right loop length. You might still want a
record button to provide a general sense of the length, but it would be
really cool if there was something that would watch the MIDI stream from
playing a phrase a few times and then pick up where the player left off.
