Recrding live output

Hi. Have had a look into this. Not sure I can achieve what the “save live output to disk” feature did in Reaper.

With that I could have a selection on 16 bar loops, and just mess around with them on the fly via my controller keyboard. e.g. muting, fading in etc. So I could compose a song live from the loops in ‘cycle’ mode

I am not sure if this is possible in cubase using the above method as the cycle mode still applies to the output track

In Reaper it was as if I had another programme open which simply recorded everything I did.

I could probably do the same if I copied the loops across indefinitely and then recorded the output but it was just a really nice feature where I could mute all the tracks, start recording and then press play and make up a song from different parts as I chose
