When I said "would be all over", what I think I meant was "could be made to
warm up to...."
It's usually pretty easy to explain how something did come into existence,
but hard to offer anything but speculation as to why something doesn't exist.
Perhaps it's the familiarity and predisposition with sequencing/programming in
that arena. It would just seem to me that the intuitive approach and spontaneity
that looping (as opposed to sequencing) affords, could do well in said techno
culture.
Plus you were being sarcastic about big companies being in touch with
anything, right?
Cheers,
Nic

Subject: Midi looper
The looper community is small enough that I can understand
manufacturers not leaping on this opportunity. The techno-raver-dj
community that you mention is another matter, however. If, in fact,
that bunch would "be all over" a midi looper, why hasn't one of the big
hardware manufacturers come out with such a device
????
