Creating Loops for Live Drumming

2005-12-16 by johnny_flash_2000

Hi,

I´m new to this board. I am a drummer from Germany who wants to use his new 1100 for 
Live Drumming. Now I got one question for you. Hope you can help me..
My 1100 is connected to a ME35T Trigger Interface to which my Drumpads are connected. 
Now I want to start a two-bar Drumloop with one of my pads by just hitting it once.  I 
know, I can do this by setting the parameter "TYPE OF PLAYBACK" in the ED.2 Page to 
"PLAY SAMPLE TO ENDE". So now the two-bar Loop is playing, when I hit the pad. But after 
the Akai has played this Drumloop once, he stops, because in this parameter mode, the 
akai does not accept any loop points in the sample. How can I get the Akai to play this 
two-bar Drumloop in cycle..? I know I can set loop points and set the parameter "TYPE OF 
PLAYBACK" to "LOOP IN RELEASE". So now, when I start the Drumloop via an MIDI-
Keyboard, the two-bar Drumloop plays in cycle. But just as long as I hold the key on the 
keyboard. I can´t do this with drumpads of course, because of the nature of drumpads. I 
just can hit it once (or twice o.e..) My wish is to get the Akai play this drumloop in cycle by 
just hitting the pad once.. Is there any chance..? 

Thanks for your help

Greetings from Hamburg
