Well you can set distinct pattern in megababy witch would trigger Super8. You can set the change of pattern by hitting a midi note so it changes at first beat of current pattern.
So It might be possible to record first loop of 1 bar length with metronome in headphone. (you set in megababy a 2 bar pattern with record note at first beat, and play note at the begining of second bar)
and next hit the pattern switch note witch will trigger record a 4 bar loop on another super8 instance, starting from next bar...


If the process of your song don't change too much with each performance, you can even do that without megababy. Write the triggering notes on the grid on a midi item and just play it to your super8s. (same idea as BenK-msx)


Maybe Another idea using megababy would be to quantize the input of switching pattern notes at 1 bar, so you'll only have to use a one distinct pattern for each message you'll want to send to Super8 instances.


Finally You could investigate if some dedicated looper software such as logeloop could cover your need, and if not try to use it in conjonction with reaper using rearoute and maybe some midi virtual cable soft.
