Selecting which inputs Loopy HD Records

Love the program, just getting into doing some cool stuff with Loopy.

I have a Scarlett 8i6, with 4 inputs, 4 outputs. My setup is as follows:

Inside Scarlett MixControl, I have DAW1-4 routed to hardware outputs 1-4

Inputs:
guitar -> 8i6 input 1
Upright bass -> 8i6 input 2

8i6 outputs 1-4 are sent ti individual channels of a hardware mixer, so they can be mixed individually.

I use AUM to allow me to insert BIAS FX and Ampkit on the two channels for processing of my instruments.

AUM Ch 1 (guitar)
Input : Hardware Input 1
Insert: BIAS FX
Output: Hardware Output 1

AUM Ch 2 (upright bass)
Input : Hardware Input 2
Insert: Ampkit
Output: Hardware Output 2

AUM Ch 3
Input : Loopy
Insert: none
Output: Hardware Output 3

This allows me to mix the output of Loopy with the hardware mixer for quicker control. It works great because each instrument is processed separately, and shows up on a separate channel of my hardware mixer too.

My question is this: how do I tell loopy what input channel to record from? (ie. guitar on hardware input 1, etc). Most of the time it won't matter, because I will be playing one instrument at a time, but on the occasion I have a guest playing upright and I am playing guitar, I might want to only record the guitar part as a loop, while we are both playing? Is it even possible?

I have AudioBus, AUM, MiMix, and many of the other great iPad apps at my disposal.
