Retrieve buffer file path from Looper Audio Effect?

I've seen examples of using the LOM to determine the file path for the current sample loaded in a Simpler Device.

Anyone have any luck doing this with Looper? My gut tells me no, since it is a circular buffer, but it would be really handy to access if possible.

On a related note...when will the LOM documentation be updated for Live 9.7 and above?

Yeah I don't think there is a 'file-path' for the Looper at all until you actually drag the file into Live, it probably functions more like a long delay line under the hood (just speculating here).

One of the reasons I make my own loopers is to get around the limitations of Live's built in solution.
