Yes, interesting.  Using a silent clip or just muting it works, but then you 
are still confined by the host's tempo.
Sometimes I just like to freely loop with no tempo.  I guess I could run two 
instances of Mobius in Live, one that syncs to host and one with no sync. 
Then I could MIDI map a button that turns one off and the other on, and visa 
versa.

When you configure Mobius for host sync, it waits for beat or bar pulses
from the host.  In Live these start being sent when you start the
transport by clicking on the little triangle.  I only use Live for
testing so I can't say for sure but there may be a way to start the
transport without having any clips be audible if you want to bring
them in later.  If not then I guess you would have to start with
a silent clip.

How would you prefer this to work?
