This version has option for mix-down. Left side records the mono mic input with panning options of BPM random min/max range or manual and the Right side records stereo but only from left side players. For mix-downs or for fixing clipping. I messed up the bar with the time signatures so I still have to redo it as global or independent for each side. I don't know yet.

And here is v1.009.003 and v1.034.001 with a Sync Restart button added and midi restart. Now multiple instances can be synchronized by midi. Even pressing the transport STOP button gets them back in sync.

Here is one or two ideas but it's not clear how to code them in assembler or dsp. If each recorded pass gets scaled down or normalized to -3db before it's mixing in the new recording pass, then theoretically, you could add to the buffer forever and never reach a clipping point. It just not clear by how much to scale it down. What if -3db is too much or not enough ?

Update: Turns out that the recorded loops get destroyed/cleared not only by the transport bar resetting the plugin but also by the preset manager. Please remove the preset manager if you want the recorded loops to survive more than a minute.

Latest compiled version is here. Added the recorder but it needs more work.

Here is another version with midi sync and soft limiters for cleaner sound:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1s5CvDt ... sp=sharing

This version has all the hard clip limiters removed and replaced with soft clip limiters. Input gain now goes from 0 to 2. Multiple copies can be run in parallel (in sync) and they all respond to midi changes on the specified port. Just make sure the midi input port is set to be identical on all of them and that it matches the midi out port from the Midi Out device.

All other versions and mods are found here:

This version has a simplified self contained Recorder without any outside dependencies. I had to remove the ARM button because sometimes was clearing the audio and it was not saving anything to file because of that. Now the recording can be stopped before the time limit is reached. It also starts as soon as the start button is pressed.

To use the recorder just press the 3 buttons in order from top to bottom:

1. Clear Rec (Deletes The Old Buffer)
2. Create Rec (Creates New Buffer)
3. Start Rec (Starts Recording)

Here is another modification with random speed switching, random input panning and random direction switching. I'm still trying to figure out how to offset the metronome because it starts late compared to the FL Studio metronome when everything is synchronized by midi. The built in metronome needs a 50ms to 100ms early start. Any ideas ?

Here is another version that has a button for randomizing the background colors. It's still missing the random panning option and I don't remember what else is different but here is the link again to the entire folder with all the different versions.

It looks like in v1.047 the global restart button is not working anymore and I didn't even touch it. So, here a modified version that also has output panning for the top player and effects for overdubbing.

Finally this version has tick offset for Bars and Beats that applies to the metronome only. Last time I tried it I was applying it to the recorder/player but the metronome was always the same. I didn't test it yet outside of FlowStone but it should work relative to FL Studio metronome. The restart also happens from the last Bar and not from zero.
