Hey all,
Here is a doofer I made inspired by a renoise student’s lesson. It is an LPC synced 4 track live looping doofer that allows for line input (microphone) or looping of any audio stream that you insert it into.
Macros are as follows:
Macro 1: input select “ø,1,2,3,4” determines which tap of the mtdelay unit is being used for audio buffering. ø is no input to the looper. This honestly isn’t super useful in this iteration of the looper, but in a future version I will allow for more creative control of individual inputs/“tracks”
But it does allow you to bypass looper recording when set to ø, so you can jam over your loops
Macro 2:“on>mute” This mutes the output of the looper without clearing the recording buffer
Macro 3: “clear/kill” this clears the recording buffer whenever this macro is moved. All recorded audio is deleted, never to return
Macro 4: “sync LPC” This controls the loop rate in multiples of 2 LPC. 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, and 255 LPC are all available. 255 may not be that useful lol
Macro 5: “FB” controls the feedback level on all delay taps/buffers simultaneously. Allows for negative feedback values as well. Perhaps you don’t want a true looper, but only a long delay. Use this one. Otherwise set and forget at max value for 100% FB
Macro 6: “LP freq” The taps all have LP filtering enabled. this sets the cutoff frequency for all taps simultaneously. Offering further sound sculpting possibility if used as a long delay unit. Otherwise set and forget at max value.
Macro 7: “line input” This is a simple switch which enables a line input device for recording from external audio input into the looper. Of course, you will need to set up your recording preferences accordingly
Hope this is useful to some of you out there. Let me know if it gets some use, and I’d love to hear any live looping renoise jams you come up with.
I will probably make an improved version of this sometime. Or maybe not. Life is full
