Yes, he's a self-confessed MaxMSP user. He apparently took a few months
off to write his own patch. How "from scratch" it was is a bit hard to
tell, though.

capabilities.

Yes. The main problem is that any real "loopers building blocks" system
isn't in place. Instead people are working with relatively low-level
systems, creating their own sync sources, etc. - which keeps it out
reach for many.

Even very established rigs like "lloopp" for Max are EXTREMELY obscure
to me. I guess most max-users don't go for K.I.S.S. ;)
