Well, to further clarify.. for me it's not that corrupted pitch manipulation is bad, it's that I prefer it to be ONE texture in a piece, rather than for it to become the overriding texture imposed on every subsequent overdub... If the algorhythm were applied to the playback and left the input alone, I'd be happier. >And so The Quest continues for the Ultimate Looping Tool. > >My wife, bless her innocence in all of this, jus twrites it all off as >magic when I try to excplain that it's all about signal path >processing. > >Could it be that the ideal situation is to have a variety of looping >tools at hand to send the sound to be processes either as Charles's >UNCORRUPTED pitch shifts, Mark's deliciously CORRPUTED pitch shifts, >or BOTH?
