Problème Looper

Réponse d'Ableton à ma question (qui me fait aimer mon Octatrack encore un peu plus...)

Hello Pierre,

Thank you for writing to Ableton support.

It can be difficult to make a flawless loop in Looper for a couple of reasons.

When dealing with sustained sounds like pads, where the sound is slightly changing, making the beginning and end of the loop so that they sound exactly the same is difficult due to the shifting sound.

Also, Looper has no crossfade function, because this would negatively impact loops made with percussive sounds; the attack of the first hit would then have a fade-in on it, causing the sound to be different.

For recording long loops of sustained material, I would recommend instead using Session View and recording into a Clip Slot on an Audio Track.  This will put a small fade on the recording (due to the preference setting "Create Fades on Clip Edges").

I hope this helps!  Please feel free to write back with any further questions or problems.

With kind regards,

Tim
