Greetings, I want to set up the OT to play back loops that I record live in as unsynced a way as possible. The process will involved playing into a Chase Bliss Blooper and then manually sampling that into the OT using the rec buttons (no recording trigs). Right now, I’m thinking:
Guitar or synth–>Amp–>h9–>Blooper–>OT input A
OT output CD in studio mode–>Ventris–>InputCD
Output–>Amp return
T1: Pickup machine (for overdubbing, etc). Input A. Set to One2, tiny fades, Max length, some extra RAM from tracks 5 and 8.
T2-4: Flex Machines, track “plays free” so I can sample into the track and trigger it at whatever time I want. Regular track recorders. Input A or CD, depending on what I want to do.
T5: Thru machine for Ventris (inputs CD&D, outs CD in studio mode will go to Ventris)
T6-7 saved for later
T8 Master with filter and comp.
The idea is that I control the sync with my hands, rather than locking to a clock. Sort of the opposite of techno.
What other settings should I enable to do this so that T2-4 aren’t synced to one another? Ideally, I’d like time stretch on so I can mess with pitch and playback rate independently.
What am I missing?
TIA.
