I am trying to do live looping with hardware synths. I am using the method I saw on Lifted Noice YT channel. Having a preset midi track playing with all 16 pads unassigned but playing one midi note each at the beginning of a loop.
I then record a loop from a hardware synth and export to one of the pads and it gets retriggered at the beginning of the loop each time, and then I can record another loop, rinse and repeat.
It is working well minus one problem. When I export the loop to a pad the volume is greatly reduced. When I am recording in the looper, the gain is set properly with it being as high as possible without clipping. The strange thing is that when the loop is recorded and keeps playing over before I hit export the volume is perfect.
The problem is on export, it is greatly reducing the volume of the sample. Like 70% reduction in volume. If I then go to sample edit and normalize the sample it plays back at the same volume it was playing at while still in the looper memory before exporting as a sample. Any ideas? Is there a way to set auto normalize?
FYI, one nice thing about the looper is that you can change the inputs directly in the looper, so I can select any of the 16 inputs from my audio interface without needing to setup an audio track or anything. Just need to get the volume thing figured out on export to sample.
