RE: WAS: Who uses looping in their promo material? NOW:Prerecordedmaterial



I use some limited backing tracks for certain gigs. But I use Ableton Live and fully utilize follow actions. Drum/percussion parts as well bass lines can be almost totally randomized. They will never behave the same way twice. Follow actions are incredibly underutilized feature in Live.
