Loop Station-like AU plug-in
I started working on a max/msp patch that’d do what the Boss Loop Station pedals do: layering loops in real-time. I don’t have much experience with max so it was a good project to get better skills. Version 5 of max has really brought some great improvements, like the dynamic documentation and help. Max has become much more intuitive. I also like the new presentation mode which allows to design much cleaner interfaces.
So I started juggle with loadbang, record~, buffer~ objects. Actually timing is a bit tricky… But today I found an AudioUnit plug-in which seems to do what I want: SooperLooper. The good point is that I can run SooperLooper directly into Ableton Live as a plug-in. I’m gonna test it first and then I might be using it instead of developing my very own patch. Anyway I’m still interested in doing my own interface so I’ll definitely go back to max soon.

How did SooperLooper work out in Ableton? After seeing your post, I’m trying to use it in Ableton. I’m trying to set tempo based on my first recorded loop length, then build on that, but even after reading the forum info, am stumped as to how to get it functioning.
Live 8 isn’t an option, so I’m trying whatever plug-ins will work…
