Re: Live Looping in an ensemble context.....what gear do u use?



Great topic.

I've been looking for these types of videos for awhile now.
Thanks Matthias.

I'm currently playing  with a guitarist who is using a RC50 and was
wondering if anyone has had any success syncing with it. I think it can
only act as a master.

I'm hoping to sync it with a laptop  Bidule/Mobius combo.

I was wondering what syncing setups everyone is using and what
recommendations you have.

Here are a couple songs that I would like to try this with. They are not
strictly live looping recordings but I'm currently doing them in my live
looping set.
