Great fun, could become something spectacular!

Watching a show with the kiddo, recording his favorite characters or theme songs, scratching and looping. He is thoroughly amused!

I have some requests that would make this so useful in a music making environment…

1. Auto play and loop after a recording is finished.

2. Play toggle (play only while pressed)
