Hmm, although you describe things somewhat, its not totally clear to me how you intend to choose which loop to play when. But yes, I kinda know what you're getting at.. Loading all drum loops on one track, and all guitar loops on the next track, and then triggering them should do.
One way would be to trigger them manually (with a midi controller for example), the other is to move clips on a grid. Ableton Live is kind of a mix between the two (as far as I know) and Bitwig seem to work similarly.
the idea is to be able to try out different song structure based on the same loops.
Do the loops need to be time-stretched?
Luppp2, as on https://github.com/harryhaaren/Luppp should do this. Note that there is some issues with playback of different sample lenghts. I'm re-writing the engine, so Im no longer familiar with the exact bug in that version. I know it didn't work perfectly though.. YMMV :)
In my case, there wouldn't be the need for time-stretching as I'm creating the loop myself.
But yeah, the loops would be different side.
Then once that would be done - I would re-record everything properly in Ardour (drums with multiple tracks, breaks, etc... a more natural way of playing, guitar played and not looped, etc)
Cool, perhaps using Luppp is feasible, if you trigger the loops again they'll re-sync, so it'll give you a rough idea.
In general this is exactly the intended workflow when designing Luppp, but its just not there yet. I hear the future is a big place... -Harry
Can't wait for the future :)
