live_loop name (symbol)
Run the block in a new thread with the given name, and loop it forever. Also sends a cue
with the same name each time the block runs. If the block is given a parameter, this is given the result of the last run of the loop (with initial value either being 0
or an init arg).
It is possible to delay the initial trigger of the live_loop on creation with both the delay:
and sync:
opts. See their respective docstrings. If both delay:
and sync:
are specified, on initial live_loop creation first the delay will be honoured and then the sync.
Introduced in v2.1
init: |
initial value for optional block arg |
auto_cue: |
enable or disable automatic cue (default is true) |
delay: |
Initial delay in beats before the live_loop starts. Default is 0. |
sync: |
Initial sync symbol. Will sync with this symbol before the live_loop starts. |
sync_bpm: |
