A Tasty Pixel have released another huge update of additions and fixes for Loopy Pro. Version 1.0.13 is available as a FREE download.
The update includes:
- Added “Phase Preservation” recording setting, which controls whether or not LP will rotate a new loop to align the start (on by default). When on, loops will now reliably maintain the phase with current playing loops
- Added “Loop” mode for record count-in/out quantization setting
- When counting-out record with no count-in, count out based on recording length rather than clock position
- Added “Auto Count Out” setting for one-shots (in clip details screen, or via actions; off, by default)
- Added title field to clip details popover, visible above waveform after pulling up
- Added double-tap or hold on value label on any slider to open text field
- Added support for one-shot playback quantisation using UI
- Set clip title to filename on import of audio file
- Fixed post-record initial loop playback delay when auto loop detection is on
- Fixed a save points issue with large AUv3 save state, where only latest save state was kept
- Fixed a project save issue that could result in missing AUv3 saved state
- Fixed second tap to stop current fade-out and stop immediately
- Fixed layer progression error with overdub on a hold action
- Fixed X-Y pad mapping reset issue when reloading projects
- Fixed white sequencer segments
- Fixed some one-shot overdubbing issues
- Allow MIDI trigger holds and double-taps resulting in a record toggle to pre-empt taps and perform immediately, to avoid delays
- Remember metronome on/off state when saving projects
- Revised EQ/Lowpass/etc node UI to hide callout when ending drag, rather than showing larger callout
- Fixed conflict issue with overdub-after-record and tail recording
- Stop recording non-hold-to-play one shots on release, not on press
- Restart timeline to beginning on MIDI clock stop
- When overdubbing a playing one-shot, disable audio threshold record start
- Fixed count-ins when using clock “Perform Count-In” setting
- Enable record count-in for “hold to record” actions
- Fixed stuck on/highlit loop state when using “Wait For Playback” and count-in, and stopping clock before count-in ends
- Improved count-in/out display indication to reflect actual delay interval
- Fixed a possible crash on paste
- Fixed issue with clip exporter if project, group, or clip name contains non-filesystem-safe characters
- Fixed a possible crash during recording
- Some optimisations for directory listing with large folder structures
- Fixed crash when opening initial loop edit screen after recording empty audio source
- Fixed incorrect step size for “MIDI Controller” AUv3 parameter unit type
- Fixed memory leak of pre-fader effects on master output channel when starting new projects
- Revised AUv3 parameter value update to use different iOS AUv3 API mechanism: prior one was buggy and caused hangs. This should fix a lot of hang crashes when using AUv3s.
- Moved AUv3 allocation to background thread to avoid possible hangs due to AUv3 bug
Loopy Pro is a live-looper. And a sampler. And a sequencer. And a very capable AUv3 Audio Unit host. And a DAW. And an AUv3 Audio Unit.
You get the idea. Loopy Pro is deep. But it’s also designed to be friendly, and a great deal of fun.
You can set up Loopy Pro to work however you do, with features like hands-free looping with count-in, count-out and automatic loop detection; or “free” looping, where you can choose on-the-fly how long to make loops. There’s even retrospective recording, where you can lock in a loop after the fact.
There’s extensive MIDI controller support, including built-in support for the Launchpad and the APC40 mk2, and effortless MIDI Learn for setting up your controllers.
You can also drag-and-drop audio straight onto loops in Loopy Pro, with sophisticated tempo and pitch adjustments, and use Loopy Pro as a clip launcher, with all kinds of options for song sectioning.
The built-in mixer lets you set up insert and send effects for every channel in your project, and load AUv3 Audio Unit instruments, effects, and MIDI sequencers.
And there’s a built-in sequencer, for arranging songs, and even performing them live, totally automated and hands-free.
There’s also a great deal still to come.
So, what are you reading this for? Go take Loopy Pro for a spin – there’s a 7-day free trial just waiting for you.
