How does Tracktion compare to Ableton for loop handling?

[Bluto]

I also would like to have 'cycled' or 'loop' recording. It's actually probably at the top of my list, along with track folders.

However, I think "very restricted" is a bit of an exaggeration. I rarely use MIDI, and even then I usually render to audio, leaving me in a purely audio environment. I still find it comfortable and efficient, although without cycle recording "somewhat" restricted.

Cubase costs roughly six times as much even for the SL version, and more than that for the full. I still think it's a combination of flattering and pointless to compare the two all the time when the price point is so vastly different. Hopefully the real comparisons will begin with T2.

eXt costs 49$ and it has audio-loop-recording
(and multi-channels per track as well b.t.w.)

Don't be an arse, ok?

yes, but if he wasn't one of those 'Mr. Five Posts' he would know that I've always been an arse since I registered on this forum so it's rather unlikely that it suddenly will change just because
he asks for it

Yup, forgot to mention... I mainly record guitar as well.

Me too (and ex: Cubase as well)

I can't say that I'm an arse, though I'm sort of an arse man. Of course, that doesn't make me a Jens man by way of syllogism.

I also own eXT. Audio sequencing isn't even close to what I want (yet) in a sequencer, though it is no doubt one of the most powerful available. It's got some groovy features that I use all the time, though, and is a perfect companion for Tracktion!

Who I am isn't important. What's important is for you to not be an arse.
