Description:
Enable stepped dials to have access to control loops and layers, allowing for more precise control over the looped and overdubbed audio layers directly through dial interactions.
Problem:
Currently, stepped dials do not have direct access to control loop and layer states, limiting their functionality for managing overdubs or triggering different layers in a loop. This reduces the potential for real-time performance control.
Proposed Solution:
  • Allow stepped dials to interact with and control specific loops and layers (e.g. controlling loop start/stop, triggering overdubs, adjusting volume, or switching between layers)
  • Provide a way to map the dials to specific loop layers or overdubs so they can be accessed and controlled easily
  • Allow for precise control of individual layers or loops via the stepped dial, including the ability to switch between overdubs and layers for more dynamic performances
  • Optionally, add visual feedback for each layer/loop on the stepped dial to show which layer or loop is currently being controlled
Benefits:
  • Increases performance flexibility by giving real-time, hands-on control over loops and layers
  • Enables more creative manipulation of overdubs and layered audio without needing to manually navigate through menus or screens
  • Ideal for live performances or dynamic sound design setups
  • Provides smoother transitions between loops and overdubs, enhancing workflow efficiency
