Loop Recorder decay time 100% Please!

hi all I'm just new to this forum but have been playing with dvs software and hardware since the start of it all(well almost). and I am so glad that one of the company's finally got it right I have gone from mixvibes, to torq, always bypassing traktor because of its in-flexibility, but always keeping a close eye on what was going on. about 10 years now, and NI nailed it! my perfect setup is 2x f1's away, "but", just one thing, Loop recorders work better if you don't have to press the record button before moving your hands to the decks for a scratch, the other thing is, that some of the best things you would ever want to record "just happen" when your groovin, then there gone. If the good folks at NI could pretty please do a tiny tweak(or tell me how to do it, if that is in a dll or something) so the Loop Recorded could decay at 100% that would be RAD.
Peace out, and mix hard.

 

Am I in the wrong place for this question? If I should be on another part of the forum, or write a email to NI, please let me know.
I created a past time, beat locked sampler in a demo of Reaktor, worked like a small tape loop that kept recording, much like the loop recorder in Traktor, but with 100% clean tape at the record point, so you could be scratching away, just having fun, then something sounded rad( I'm bring rad back), and you just press play, and you got a perfect loop of the mad accident that just happend. If the decay time in the over dub could be set at 100% Traktor would have nailed everything I ever wanted from a DVS

Peace All, Mix Hard

 

loop record overdub decay 100%

is there a script that a user can change to make the overdub decay 100% instead of 50%?

 

Getting some cool new fx withe the 2.6 update was a nice surprise, yet the top of my with list is still to make the loop recorder overdub decay 100% so it is usable as a tape loop recorder

 

In the preference >loop recorder> Overdubbing > seems your whish has been exhausted!!!!!!!

sorry though had seen it to 100%, but yeah is 50%, then keep asking it might come true, it should not be to hard to make it happen, or may be then can make the fx plug into the play back recorder

 

Yeh it's been a while now(why make it onlygo to 50%? I dont know) The only work arounds are to use another loop recorder, then record that with Traktor, or to use a long delay before the recorder, But both options be create a loop length delay before you can get the sample into traktor. Being able to grab those happy accidents strait up would be so powerful and fun. Anyway until 100% overdub decay is implemented using 'Everyday Looper' on the ipad is a neatish workaround. Peace.

 

I was thinking, if you record the loop, then drag it into the remix deck, the apply a decay effect (If there is one)? Would it work? May be I have not grasped the whole concept of what you want to do! But good luck.

Hey DJD1, thanks for your thoughts, It's my fault for not explaining it properly. The idea is to have the loop recorder constantly recording in a loop, and you press 'stop' to grab your loop, rather than 'start'. so you don't have to know when what you want to recording is going to happen. the problem with the over dub decay only going to 50% means that if you leave the loop recorder 'loop recording' you end up with a echo'y mess. but if a bpm syched long delay is chained between the headphone output and the loop recorder, then when you play that spontaneous awesome cut or whatever, press record and you get to capture what you played in the past. the only problem with doing it this way is that you have to wait for the loop to feed from the delay into the loop sampler. if the loop recorder made a 100% clean recording at the point that the play point was at in the buffer, then you wouldn't have to wait 4, 8, 16 beats or whatever. You would instantly have a loop of a happy accident.
