Look at you go, Per...using 7 out of 8 of your Mobius looping channels! The clip sounds great.

Thanks for posting that massive thing. Interesting reading. I've read through it on the run, saving it for future detailed reading.

I'm going for simplicity and playability to make the most of a live impro situation. Too many options tends to limit my musical imagination. So I only bring a Centrino lappy, Fireworx box, physical instruments, small MIDI mixer and my FCB1010. That's it. My rig looks like this: http://www.looproom.com/mob.JPG and sounds like this: http://www.looproom.com/audio/mobjam1.mp3 No VST plug-ins. Only the mic input through the fireworX going straight into Möbius standalone version. Audio interface may be a RME Multiface or an Echo Indigo i/o. A cheap USB MIDI interface (two cables: IN and OUT). On sunday I'll do my second gig with this minimal set-up and I'll bring a flute and a tenor sax with the gear mentioned above. If I want to get dirty with gear lugging I may bring a guitar as well, but I'm rapidly becoming too lazy for playing that thing ;-) On 12 jan 2006, at 18.39, monk wrote: > but how does one get around the latency? ---> Input latency affecting direct signal Do not play THROUGH software. Clone your instrument signal at the audio interface input and send one signal directly to the PA (no latency) while the other clone goes into the software for looping and processing. Only use "wet" signal in the software. ---> Internal software latency (AD/DA conversion, digital processing) Use software that compensates for this. per
