Device Overview
| Name/Version: | Reverser 3.1 |  |
| Author: | jabbone | |
| Description: | A beat repeat which reverses the slice. new version: as suggested sampling occurs in beat sync. Sync values follow the loop length (loop length == 1/4, device is triggered on 4rs). What one actually samples is (in the above case) the 4r before, not after. Hopefully improved control of clicks. simplified control corrected aliases |

| this doesn´t give out any audio for me :/ |

| mmm works fine for me. maybe i should post some instructions: load the device. to make the effect effecting be sure that you click on the "woop" button. If you want to reverse it click on the "straight/reverse" button. If you want to scratch the audio material map a MIDI CC to the Director control, if you want to change the length of the audio buffer change the grid. If you have temporal problems try to press LB button again. It is indeed a really simple device. If you get clicks change the %value, which changes the smoothness. I used some basic MSP building blocks, which should be part of the "tools Section", such as the M4L balance and M4L gain, be sure that they are pointed out in the search path. hope this helps. |

| it would be wonderfull if you put some quantization when pressing the woop button (pressing it buffering 1/8 and quantizing the buffer to the nearest 1/8) |

| This is my favorite effect I've found on this site. Big ups to jabbone for uploading it! I like to use it on the master channel for a nice glitch effect. |

| So far my favorite too. so simple yet so good sounding. I'll just record a bunch of variations and splice them all together overlaying the original. |

| Hi, and thanks for a neat device, already in serious use!! Would it be possible to make it respond correctly to other meters than 4/4? I frequently use 5 and 3, and the note-values are totally out of it then... best regards and thanks again Audun K. |

| Maybe I should mention that I have placed it after Lives own looper-device... Audun |

| Hi, to my mentioned problem with other meters than four: I found the solution: simply remove the last "1" from the "phasor~ @frequency 1 0 0 bars.beats.units @lock 1" so it reads "phasor~ @frequency 1 0 0 bars.beats.units @lock"... Now the repeat-buttons (and pitch) will correspond correctly to all meters or rather quarternotes...except the bottom one -reading one - it is still 4 beats....but who gives a shit ;-)) Thanks.. A |

| Uupss...worked for a while, but suddenly started reacting weird to tempo- and meterchanges again...after completely removing "....@lock" also it worked somehow, but now....hmmm.. I tried ;-)) A |
Posted on February 22 2011 by aukleive (report) |
| Ok, I finally got it. To make this work in any metre: Replace the "phasor~ @frequency 1 0 0 bars.beats.units @lock 1" with "phasor~ 1n @lock 1"... Now it DOES work.... happy bitpunching... A |

| cool, as said this is a simple demonstrative device, there are many ways to do things in max hence m4l, nice to see that you found an improvement!!! p.s. I pass by here once every 2 centuries, sorry been very busy on another miliions of things. Working on new stuff, check if you want and contact me via pm http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IkDfhcKuA9o&feature=related |

| This device crashes Live when I change the sets tempo. |

| Hi ytsek, would be nice to know which version of Live, Mac or Windows, etc. I hope I can help. |

| Hi jabbone, this is an excellent little looper. Thank you for making it publicly available and editable! One issue though is that that if Live is synced to an external clock, the pitch gets changed either up or down at least a semi-tone even if the pitch knob is kept at +127. Curious symptom. Any suggestions how to work around this limitation? Cheers and thanks again, Richard Mac OS X 10.7.4 Live 8.3.1 Max Runtime 5.1.9 |

| thank you for trying it out ! hmmm, interesting, have you tried changing the arguments to phasor? try phasor~ 1n @lock 1 . The device gets its syncing/speed (and consequently pitch) from the phasor object which gets timing information from Live´s master timeline. being signal driven if the tempo of Live wobbles the device timeline will wobble too, consequently also the playback. The fact that you get a fixed semi tone up pitch is strange, I would have expected some pitch modulation (maybe even interesting ;-) ). I will try it out as soon as I can! thank you again, Jacopo. |

| This effect doesn't remember it's settings when saved in a set. When i open the project the Woop gui shows the exact settings i selected but the effect plays as if it's loaded with initial values. I.e. save a project with Woop in reverse mode. Save the project and load the project, now Woop plays forward even when the settings show reverse. |

| this is true, in fact to work the effect needs to "sample" some audio first. You probably need to touch the effect once after start up, to reset it and make it sample again (if I understood correctly what actually is happening is that the effect is activated before sampling any incoming signal). |

| This is what Max is good at. Simple yet surprising. Thanks jabbone. |

| Hey Jabbone, great device, really should be come standard with live. I'm also experiencing tempo related crashes. If you'd like i can send you a bug report pack, just let me know where to send it. thanks! Live 8.3.1 Max Runtime 5.1.9 |

| Hi there, thanks for the download, unfortunately I do not work for Ableton so I have not the possibility of analyzing bug reports as they can ( I believe most m4l users/developer cannot too). - bummer - The device is made 100% with max standard objects so it is difficult to understand if it is a problem of the device, max or whatever is going on in any particular set. It would be great though to at least give it a try. You can contact me via PM on this site or via the Ableton Forums, also under Jabbon. Thank you again J. |
