    Default Post your Loop Recorder Techniques

    Hi all,

    Given the new Dub FX videos, I wanted to start a thread on loop recorder techniques.

    As I think it can be a powerful feature, but I'm still looking for new ways to make it more robust.

    I'll be playing with some techniques and post my findings here.

    Mainly use it for recording weird noises created with a micro loop and effects. Like the vid ean did with the x1...

    I use it to make my own drum loops from one shots quite a bit.
    Also I use it to keep a groove going by recording from the main out, then while it's playing I can load up my next songs and samples.

    I do that with the sample deck. I've been playing so much stuff the last few months that doesn't involve much mixing though that I've fallen out of practice.

    Videos please
    Why buy something, when you can build it yourself for the double cost?

    I really need a footswitch for this or an extra hand. I've mainly been looping beats, adding in a dash of sample decks, sprinkling in some effects and eating a nice dub sunday. The footswitch would really help the flailing arms and panicd look on my face as I try to get it all in on time.

    i've mapped my loop rec button as toggle, set length, hit button and fuck about for x beats

    I'm reshowing this one as an example, sorry for those who already saw it (I should really offer something new):
    I'm using the loop recorder to add several layers of sounds, then playing with fx on some of those , record that, add the new layer, etc..
    At around 4:14 during the break, I record one of the sample on which I apply some fx too, remove the layer, and pull it back later at around 5:43
