Yes, I know what you mean. You have to end Record mode by a simple Record (or Overdub, Multiply, Reverse or whatever you're up to next). If you want to use the same script to end record mode by Record we have to use an "if" line and set up two alternatives in the script: ______________ !name Select Track 4 and Record if mode=record Record else Track 4 Wait last Record endif ______________ With this script you kick pedal 4 and track 4 is selected and the recording starts. Then you kick pedal 4 a second time to stop recording and close the loop.... or you kick Overdub, Reverse or any other ending you may prefer. The only problem, that I don't understand how you will deal with, is that if you have 8 tracks you almost fill up one bank on the FCB with eight track unique Record pedals - and you have no fast access to alternative endings of Record mode (Reverse, Overdub, Multiply, Speed etc etc). You could save up a lot of foot pedals buy using a script to "go next track and record if nothing is already looping there". You could even broaden such a script to go into Overdub (or any other) mode if the next track already has a loop spinning. Like this example: ______________ !name Next Track And Record if mode=record Record else NextTrack Wait last Record endif ______________ With this script on a foot button you can just step ahead and fill up as many tracks as you need with the first one-round loop. The you make room on the FCB pedal for an Undo button, Overdub and everything else you may need. Just an idea, you chose whatever you need for your specific music. -- Greetings from Sweden Per Boysen www.boysen.se (Swedish) www.looproom.com (international) www.myspace.com/perboysen www.stockholm-athens.com
