Hi
I would like do record a MIDI track in overdub mode, but i would like DP to automatically create a new take every time it starts from the beginning of the loop like it's shown here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-2pI-M8yZI
I'm doing everything like in the video but DP does not create new takes, it "just" overdub the first take...

Re: MIDI overdub record and auto takes
Caveat: My experience is on the Mac platform, but I found this works recording audio files, not so for MIDI files. Too bad, as it's a great feature for solo work.
Others may know of the secret sauce for MIDI loop recording with take incrementing...

Re: MIDI overdub record and auto takes
Unfortunately it behaves differently than audio recording. I tried to check if being in "destructive record" affected this, but it doesn't. I did write to MOTU to ask them to implement this at some point in the future.Todzilla wrote:Others may know of the secret sauce for MIDI loop recording with take incrementing...

Re: MIDI overdub record and auto takes
Agreed this would be a great enhancement, especially if they made it work just like the Audio loop take incrementing works.James Steele wrote:Unfortunately it behaves differently than audio recording.
