Elijah Lucian has updated Choppa, available for $4.99.
What’s new in version 1.4.0:
- Hit USE ABLETON LINK in Settings and Choppa publishes its master mix as a Link Audio source on the local network. Open Live, Loopy Pro, AUM, or any Link 4 peer on the same Wi-Fi and pick “Choppa . your- device-name” from the track input picker. Tempo syncs at the same time. Hit REC or your phone, hear chops in the host. No USB cable, no Audio Unit, no virtual audio device
- One-toggle enable. The original Link integration had three knobs across two sheets – 1.4 collapses everything into a single switch. Power users can still reach Ableton’s standard Link settings dialog via Advanced.
- AUv3 host compatibility hardening. Added the registration metadata that some hosts gate plugin loading on. Hosts that already loaded Choppa keep working; hosts that previously filtered it out should now pick it up. Ableton Live 12.4 still doesn’t scan AUv3 plugins regardless -the Link Audio path above is the workaround, and a proper AUv2 build is tracked for a future release
- Wired Ethernet over USB-C gives the most stable Link Audio. Wi-Fi works for short sessions; long takes benefit from a wired connection.
- Also added a bit of juicy visual work for your viewing pleasure!
