Can someone please describe the simplest patch to utilize LiveLooper.
A single mono audio source from Built-in input.
No Midi or anything - and no need to explain LiveLooper itself.
So how would you set up the patch to enable basic looping and overdubbing?
All output I can hear is from SoundOut to headphones and I need to hear the full mix as I record and overdub.
Does this make sense?
If there is a place in documentation that describes this in particular I was not able to find it...
I figured this should be easy enough to just describe verbally.
Thanks
Jeff
At a minimum I would go with something like this:

The stuff in the red circle is "the rest of your full mix," the stuff in the blue circle is whatever you want to record in the live looper. Depending on how the live looper is configured you might also want to run whatever is going into the live looper directly to your main mixer as well.
Note that you can create all the patch cords from the live looper to the mixer at once by holding down the shift and alt keys while dragging from the first LiveLooper output.
Does that help?

Thank you for quick reply Ross,
[i]Depending on how the live looper is configured you might also want to run whatever is going into the live looper directly to your main mixer as well.[/i]
This means, in your example, a connection from the Arp. directly to S4mixer right?
The primary reason for my original query is how one hears/monitors what is being recorded by the live looper as it is recording. So far, I can't find a setting that enables monitoring - when I am putting in the first loop I have silence.
Suppose you want use LL as follows (very very basic):
Microphone in for voice. (or whatever the input is).
LL for creating layers of looping on that one signal.
You want to hear everything as it is being recorded.
Do you need that extra line going to the mixer or can you do it through LL alone?
Thanks
Jeff
Edited...
Record monitor is available in LiveLooper (upper left checkbox on Properties panel - "Record Monitor"). I have noticed in the example "DrumLooper" in AudioMulch/Examples/Basic ,at least that monitoring is checked but LiveLooper still doesn't seem to produce any output while recording(?). Must work out why or if I'm just kidding myself...
With that said, I generally find it easier to manage by sending the source that you are feeding to the Looper - to another, additional mixer input as a separate input for live monitoring, as is done in that example...

Geez I am blind as a bat!
Record Monitor as big as day right there in front of my eyes.
OK OK I'm not embarrassed ...
I agree Spectro - because once you stop recording and LL is just playing what you've made then you need a different channel to play along with all that cuz LL is not recording therefore not monitoring ... right?
Anyways
Thanks for helping the rank beginners
