Footcontroller confusion with live looping setup
Posted: Wed Sep 06, 2006 7:07 pm
Hi all,
Yesterday i read this VERY interesting topic:
http://www.ableton.com/forum/viewtopic. ... 5ca055d49c
I want to start live looping using conventional instuments: elec guitar, bass, voice Wink...
So far i set up Live (see included screenshot).
I have two loop slots and three scenes: verse, chorus and bridge.
I do not yet have a footcontroller and am planning to buy one that suits me best.
I checked several foot controllers: from behringer, rocktron midi mate, rocktron all access, kid beyond's Ground Control.
What do i need?
I want to record a clip / start and stop a clip (makes two footswitch buttons)
I have max 6 clips; makes 12 footswitches.
I want to launch scenes: verse, chorus and bridge: makes another 3 switches (totals 15)
I want a tap tempo / stop all clips (makes 17 switches)
And it would be great if i can switch some Live effects on/off.
So if i total: more than 17 switches: aarghh....
I haven't found any pedal controller board that many....
Or is there another workaround?
I am looking forward for your advice!
Best,
Fred
