Hi @TheTraveler,

I do not have a profound knowledge of the technical details of Sonci Pi. But you might take [one of Sam’s postings](http://in-thread.sonic-pi.net/t/midi-loop-recording/811/3) as a provisional answer. I do see and use Sonic Pi as a selfcontained system with some occasional detours, where I rely on native Ruby (knowing that this might not be supported in upcoming versions).

Anyway, welcome to this forum and welcome to Sonic Pi!
