MS can't do the chopping yet. You'd have to throw a file into logic and create an exs24 instrument out of it on the fly - not something I'd like to do during a set. MS also has no clip matrix. I'm leaning toward Ableton for my live performance tool for looping - augmented by MS for some keyboards. If only I could get MainStage into Ableton without SoundFlower! It creates too much latency for me.

Why not with mainstage?
...
Hi,
I found your videos very interesting (and I posted one in my blog making a comparision between Live, Mainstage and Flyloops for Live Looping.
Nowadays I'm wondering the possibility to make mainstage an alternative for Live.
It could be possible do something similar in mainstage? Clip matrix launch, live loop capture, chop and so on...?
What do you think?
Thanks again,
Mudo

And maxmsp dedicated patch...
...
Then why not to implement these features in maxmsp directly to work with MS or drag a mail to Apple?
