As you noted, there are many approaches to live-looping.
I compose all of my work -- every note is written out. I automate all
of the loop actions via MIDI and VST automation. Thus, my
live-performance will be nearly identical to a recorded performance.
While I haven't ruled out improvisation in the future, my emphasis is
on creating pattern/loop-based compositions.
All the best to you!
