Re: Laptop live looping (new issue)
Hi Ariel,
I use an Intel Mac, 2.2 with 2 gigs of RAM
Ableton 7
Sooperlooper as an Audio Unit
MOTU Traveler (the only reason i don't have an Ultralite is that it came out after I got my traveler... AND my lappy fits better on top of it, lol)
this is my main setup, if I use hardware, I take along my Eventide Orville for pitch-shifting and specialty items.
-----------------------------
In addition, i use MAX/MSP sometimes, and for plug-ins I use mainly the Live Plug-ins, the Wave Arts plugins like Track Plug and MasterVErb, and PSPAudioWare products, mainly the PSP84 and the Multi_Tap Delay.
hope that helps, happy to answer any other questions.
Oh, here's one other thing... If and when I get a little extra bread, I would go with some other good folks on this list for the RME interface products. On my Tower I still use a Metric Halo, which is equally high end...
All Best, Ariel! Todd

What interfaces are you using? and with what software?

straight doing 4 hour jobs, 1-3 times a week in clubs, bars with a
live drummer and had no problems. Not even a single glitch or anything.
Ofcourse until New Years Eve when I came home and got out of my car
and dropped it about a foot or so. Lost the display and using a
brand new macBook now.
I also keep a fan on my laptop live the whole night too.
The laptop sits on a heavy duty music stand with a fan
attached underneath blowing up. I use iTunes for the between
set music also.
