    So I recently picked up the 45000 looper to do some live guitar/ambient stuff, thinking that the four tracks would give me a lot of flexibility to bring verse/chorus/bridge parts into and out of songs via the footswitch. Unfortunatley, I can’t figure out how to do this – I can use the footswitch to select which track I’m recording onto, but hitting play or stop affects ALL tracks within the loop. I would need a free hand to manually fade a track in or out.

    Is what I’m trying to do possible? I’d also consider upgrading to the 95000 if it can do what I need. Am I missing something here?

    Perhaps a midi foot control pedal would work for you?

    Are you thinking of having the CHORUS then VERSE on separate tracks ? If so, you don’t need to pan, just record them how you want them to come in at the correct spot in the song.

    Hi,

    This is possible with an external MIDI foot controller programmed to send track mutes to each channel.

    The best pedal I have found to do this is the Nektar Pacer but there are others out there (I used to use a MIDI Moose but its a bit limited and cannot be reprogrammed)

    Here is an example of using the Nektar Pacer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AFQqY8i53qM

    Because I use my 45000 tracks in pairs (LR stereo) I mute both tracks 1 and 2, and 3 and 4 together (one buttton 1 and 2, next button 3 and 4). and it works quite well.

    I found the pacer much better than using the EHX 45000 foot controller I find really noisy when stomping on it compared to the Pacer.

    Other options are the Behringer FCP1010 but heard it can be hard to program for novices.
