A Tasty Pixel have released a significate update for Loopy Pro with a list of new features and fixes, still available as a FREE download with the availability of an optional in-app purchase to unlock the pro features.
What’s new in version 1.1.6:
- Added Multiroute Audio, for using built-in headphone port and USB audio interface simultaneously
- Added support for Bluetooth advertising (advertise device as Bluetooth peripheral)
- Added ability to rename MIDI sources
- Added labels to color swatches in editor
- Added support for multiple metronome outputs
- Made “Nudge” action for Speed and Rate multiply rather than add (e.g. Nudge 0.5 will halve, 2 will double, -1 will toggle between forward and reverse)
- Enabled Copy for actions within Control Settings section
- Improved MIDI Learn: Now does better at recognising and adapting to incoming trigger types (continuous versus impulse)
- Improved MIDI trigger selection screen, to facilitate changing trigger types
- Revised keyboard layout slightly and added octave navigation buttons
- Revised square count-down layer to be linear
- Show count-in/out on clips when playing intro/outro, and show intro/outro playhead on waveform in clip screen
- Update any pre-set loop durations to correctly reflect changes to time signature
- When using a continuous control to adjust a stepped dial/radio, only perform actions when index changes (prevents spamming the action, which can cause issues like skipping quantization delay)
- Round loop durations to whole numbers of beats, if they are slightly out, to address potential drift issues
- Revised binding execution to always begin from the first action when triggered rather than continuing from last position if cancelled
- Made some small adjustments to clip scheduler to avoid conflict between play toggle on press, and solo on hold/double-tap
- Fixed a number of glitches with overdub feedback
- Fixed a possible crash when switching pages
- Fixed a potential crash when loading an old project
- Fixed issue with saved time-scaled audio, when LP loaded as AUv3
- Fixed issue where overdub might fail if tail recording enabled
- Fixed issue where sequence-armed loop wouldn’t stop at end of sequenced segment
- Fixed issue where “Auto Count-Out” didn’t take effect for the second loop recorded, if started immediately after first
- Fixed issue with OSC not working with global profiles
- Fixed issue with actions not being performed after parameter ramps
- Fixed potential issue with Play/Stop follow action execution
- Fixed issue with triggering widgets with quantized/delayed actions
- Fixed pops when changing loop playback state while paused
- Fixed some memory leaks
- Fixed some performance issues
- Fixed an issue with mouse scrolling
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, the APC40 mk2 and the MIDI Fighter Twister, 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.
