Well, I’m working with 3.2 here, so you might see different…

If you go into prefs/editor and untick ‘Show cue log’ then  
no live\_loops are displayed.

Then you can put something like this in the loop you are  
interested in ?

puts ‘Cued: Name of the live\_loop’

Sound good?

Eli…

You can disable the cue from the live\_loop with: `live_loop :foo, auto_cue: false do ...`, but this only works if you’re not using that cue for anything.

To disable the logs of synths being triggered within a specific live\_loop use:

```ruby
use_debug false

```

This needs to go _within_ the live loop you want to silence (as is the case with all `use_` fns).

For example:

```ruby
live_loop :foo do
   use_debug false
   sample :bd_haus
   sleep 0.5
end

```

hi everybody,

Thank you for your answers. I’m using spi 3.2 under ubuntu 18.04.04.  
Well sorry for disturbing you, I should have thought of the famous RTFM 🙂  
`auto_cue: false ` is what i need but of course sam’s answer is usefull too.  
See you
