- The 'Touch' control is to simulate the effect of touching the reel - either forward or backwards to 'wobble' the loop. That's what I am finishing off / altering before I upload it. The bar at the top shows where you are in the loop and the numbered buttons are the amount of bars you want it to loop. I stopped at 32, it seemed enough.
- Welcome to looperman The ultimate pro audio resource and musicians community. Looking for free music loops, acapellas and vocals, want to hook up with like minded musicians from around the world or just looking to get some feedback on your music.
Looper is great for looping live audio, but is a little redundant for recording MIDI loops in realtime - since the built-in ableton live controls are a little more flexible. The challenge for me has always been seamlessly looping, overdubbing, and riffing in real-time and since I'm a keyboardist using both hands, the footpedal was the only way.
Welcome to Free Stuff Friday - a new weekly post that does exactly what its name suggests: sharing cool freebies, every Friday. Each week we'll be picking the best sounds, packs, patches and instruments we've seen from the Ableton Community, and passing them onto you to take into your weekend of music-making.
Taishokoto from Fidelitarium
The Taishokoto is harp-like instrument from the Japanese Taisho era in the early 20th century. Strummed with one hand and keyed with the other, it features both plucked and sympathetic (drone) strings. Phillip Jackson at Fidelitarium has shared a free Instrument Rack made of samples from the Taishokoto - preview it above and head to Fidelitarium to download for Live.
Noise, Hiss & Crackle from SampleRadar
Modern digital recording and playback might have eliminated tape hiss, vinyl crackle, and other analog noise, but sometimes you want that special character in your tracks. For example, listen to how sampled (and filtered) vinyl noise adds a gritty character to Burial's signature tune, 'Archangel':
Get an arsenal of analog noise samples for free with MusicRadar's sample pack - featuring 502 different samples of warm hiss, crackle, and other audio blemishes.
Techno & Funky House Loops from Loopmasters
Our friends at Loopmasters have shared some free sounds from their latest packs. Above, preview sounds from UMEK's 'Sounds from Behind the Iron Curtain', with a focus on slamming techno. Download free sounds from UMEK.
On a smoother tip, Sebastian Léger's 'Funky Tech House' collection does exactly what it says on the cover - preview it above and download 90 MB of loops for free.
Be sure to come back next week, for more free stuff. Got something to share? Hit us up on Facebook or Twitter and used #FreeStuffFriday.
