Very clever. And great PR for the band too.




Band uses delay from Facebook Live to loop a song and it's incredible

rubbish song but that was very clever

That's really clever.

Is the audio from facebook live such high quality that this would actually work without the earlier loops degrading? I reckon it's more likely they've used a conventional looping device and synced it with the fb live video.

The audio specs are:

• Audio Sample Rate: 48 KHz
• Audio Bitrate: 128 Kbps mono
• Audio Codec: AAC

From here:

So probably OK for the number of overdubs they did on this song.
