Hey - you're talking about "LOOP4 as a software plug-in". That's cool,
but then I would also need the "Repeater software plug-in" and none of
them are avilable ;-)

Well, that's what I did and the benefit of the tip I posted ;-)

Yes, that's cool, if you want to edit the performance after it was
recorded.

Pretty much the same I would say. Fact is I did this recording in SX
(which is very similar to Nuendo) and then imported the six audio files
into Logic on separate tracks for mixing.

All the best
