[RWP] Reaper and midi loops

[Jean-Philippe Rykiel]

Hi Indi,
You know, maybe I don't like sonars matrix view because for a moment i 
thought it would do what I dreamed of, and it doesn't, and neither does 
copying two bars a hundred times.
I would like to be able to run a loop in which I could add or remove 
events while it's running, and record These ads and removals in real 
time, and other instruments on normal tracks Simultaneously.
If I was a developper I would create this peace of software myself.
I know one sequencer that does it, it's called live from Ableton, but 
it's not accessible whatsoever.
I only dream I would have these possibilities.
For now, I use an MPC 3000 which is synced to sonar when I want to do 
These kind of things. It works but Why does one need two machines to do 
the job?
Best regards,
JPR
