sync'ing looper

Here's a little sync'ing looper I did.it can be synced via a phasor,but you may also use it un-synced.

it's done with gen~ in max7 ,but the looper itself will also work with max6.

the patch should be self-explanatory.

keep on loop'in

Hey rbrt,

I know it's a bit of an ask, but is there any chance you could comment the gen~ code?

I can do that but it's gonna take some time..

also, is there any way to attenuate the overdub? That's kind of a default feature for loopers, one I really love. Like an oldskool delay, letting things ring out.

@WETTERBERG:
hm I don't exactly understand...fade-out after you stopped overdubbing?
maybe you can send me a link

ah I get it...feedback determines how much of the already recorded material is kept while overdubbing.

personally,I don't see much sense in setting feedback to anything other than 100%..
which is the default when 'overdub' is on with the patch.
but I will show you where to acces this when I'm done documenting the code...

thanks. Yeah, you should really experiment with recording into a looper at 70% or something.

...so,here we go with an attempt to document the code..and with a cheapo 'feedback'- implementation.
