LoopBe1 and Mackie Tracktion

Down loaded loopbe1 so I could record the midi information from Groove Agent and other midi, in order to Edit etc later.
LoopBe1 installed with no problems,Enabled in Tracktion it come up As another input icon and output option.Pluged in groove Agent set ins and outs,Put Tracktion into record and recorded Groove Agent midi info on a Track As simple as that. Worked first time and did exactly what I needed, Great Stuff

This is simple, straightforward, and WORKS!!

After spending two days trying to get my Emu Emulator X2 to work as a plug-in within Sonar 6, I decided to give up (do these two companies have it in for one another??? lol). I found LoopBe1 and decided to allow it to be the "referee" that would force these two little disagreable bad boys to behave and get along!
And IT WORKED!!! Now I can use these expensive programs together all because of a FREE DOWNLOAD I got from nerds.de YOU GUYS ROCK!!!!!

Very easy

A small and easy program to use, absolutely not ressource-consuming. I recommend it for "keyboard-emulation" with standalone VST plugins.

review of loopBe1

Worked reasonably well. However when a lot of midi events are sent, it automatically triggers its feedback detection and switches off.

I downloaded a similar program called Maple and this did not cut out. (it also offers 4 potential channels)

I wanted this to link up an old version of cakewalk express to a vst synth.
I used Maple to connect the MIDI channels, (cakewalk to vsthost)
VSTHost to host the VST plugins.(midi synth, reverb and EQ)
SynthFontVst (a VST plugin to host SF2 soundfonts).

Just worked a dream and didn't cost anything to set up !!

Satisfactory in a simple application

I used LoopBe1 to feed MIDI from a game into a VSTi. I haven't yet had occasion to make any more extensive use, but for what I was using it for, it worked without problems. My use wasn't highly sensitive to latency or high bandwidth. It's not very configurable; I'd ideally like to be able to route multiple input devices to multiple output devices, and route differently depending on filters such as MIDI channel. It can't do any of this as far as I can tell.

Finally found what I was looking for.

Finally I found a possibility to map my Midy aplications one to another. I'm a user of NoteWorthy Composer. I really nice tool for but without the possibility to use VST etc. So with Loopbe1 it became possible to use NoteWorthy with my software synts.

good job 2007-11-11 04:00:42

a little problem

I use it for connecting EM1 editor program to Cubase, so I can record changes made to my Korg Electribe EM1 via the software editor into a cubase song. This way I`m not constricted to patterns in the groove box and I can write melodies, fx changes, program changes etc. directly to cubase, with no limitations (do I explain?) but the problem is that it seems that program change messages for Electribe EM1 don`t "cros" the loopbe1. I think this messages are a litle extrange, I havent investigate them well yet (I`ll do it soon connecting the two programs via hardware and recording the messages to see them) but I know that some hardware connections (steinberg midex 3-1 f.e.) get stopped when this messages are send, others not. I`d like to comment this later again.
