Amplitube looper track lengths

Postby growen0 » Sun Sep 20, 2020 10:30 am

I'm curious why the length (duration) of tracks 2,3 and 4 are locked to the duration of track 1.

From the product page - https://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/a ... #loop-play
However, the loop length for loops 2, 3 & 4 are set by the start & stop recording time for track 1. Just makes sense.


Why does it 'just make sense'?

Because that's the way people typically use a looper. You would lay down the longest "base" loop first then create the other loops based on that. They're typically shorter or the same length as the first loop.

I always had the impression the looper tracks could be independent for live playback.

The benefit (to me) is that each track can be a snippet of any length that is toggled on and off depending on what overlays I wanted at a particular time.

Is there a way to achieve this with Amplitube?
