Re: LOOPING FESTIVAL CALL TO ARMS!!!

["Haresh Bakshi" <hareshbakshi@hotmail.com>]

Hi Richard,  creating consciousness about live looping is a very pragmatic 
proposal.  Indian music has/can have much looping, when used judiciously. 
Such Indian loops can be eminently suitable for jamming and World music, 
too.

My problem is: Which software will especially suit looping in Indian 
music?  
[Tanpura, tabla, fast, repetitive Sitar passages etc.]

Regards,
Haresh.
