Description

This is a very simple and intuitive device made for resampling and looping. You can create interesting percussion loops, chord progressions, pads and other unique textures.

It can use wave files and records live onto the max device buffer. It will only record while the record button is on. The device can control the playback speed and direction with the “Twist” knob. With the “Crossfade“ knob you can control the amount of volume duck each time the device loops a sample; it controls the clickiness. The dropdown menu contains the different ways the audio file can be selected with different modes….

Don’t be afraid to add multiple other effects in the signal flow to create even more interesting sounds.

It can also be used in a live performance setting with MIDI mapping the mentioned parameters.

This device was inspired by a program called Cool Edit that is

used by the artist Four Tet in his live performances and other extra parameters inspired by different Max objects.

and its capabilities even though it is simple:
