@Mdash good point, i was stuck on chopping the whole render into equal pieces rather than in intervals from the start of the render

It takes time to take care of the piggies.

If you put your renders in a DAW and set the tempo to the same value as the piggy, boundaries will be sample accurate and you can chop without even looking at the waveform. Since the start is proper, you don't really care about where it ends.

OhhhKayyy jeeze

i've said it once and i'll say it again: piggin ain't for the lazy.

C'mon man, it's easy to cut shit out of audacity!

But I see the point, would be nice to have this option.

one has to take into account notes that don't cut off right at the end of the phrase, but have a longer decay.

LOL! No I really am that lazy.

For performance purposes the live mode thing is perfect, tho.

I think at this point we have to question your ability to see waveforms in audio editors

What i was hoping for was a precise stop that would give a render that is exactly x phrases long so i could easily beatchop it. I doubt my reflexes are good enough.

Well, you can always go back to song mode from live so you can press start and cut the thing off. I always do that.

After experimenting it turns out that using live mode to stop playback automatically still doesn't stop the clock in piggy so the render keeps going.  Looks like for now I'll just need to put clicks at the end and chop them off with audacity.

Tinkering with this resulted in me finally getting a joystick mapping file to work properly so that's super kewl.  I think I've finally explored all the various piggy options now. 

Yay, bleo's method works just like I wanted!  This is indeed a nice thing to know.

Prof's method is what I do when multitracking lsdj so I know that works as well.

Edit: oh wait maybe not

This totally warrants a new thread!

Playback will stop by itself?  In that case it's all good!  \o/
