BUT if i start with 6 "canned" loops in, for example, my octatrack and i then start out to mangle and resample them in an Improvised live manner, then it would be live looping again.. sort of..
With the right peice of gear pre-recorded loops are more like waweforms... you can create totally new improvesed music where the loops are just the starting points.. I will record a peice like this as soon as a have time and you can judge if it qualifies as live looping :-) > Date: Sun, 6 Nov 2011 13:37:04 -0800 > From: looppool@cruzio.com > To: perboysen@gmail.com; Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com > Subject: Re: Re: Re: Live Looping versus using Pre-Recorded Loops > > On 7/22/64 11:59 AM, Per Boysen wrote: > > Guys, your discussion in this thread makes it impossible to hold back > > this final question: > > > > Is it cheating to compose the music before you perform it? > > LOL, that's a good and funny question.
