Nice update

The next update will be a big one - I'm adding Universal iPad support to Lootical.
Will take a few weeks to finish as there are a lot of screens to redesign for the iPad resolution. I'll post some iPad screenshots over at http://looptical.com at some point.
Great... now that I know that iPad support will be included as universal, there's no need to hold back on purchasing anymore
@MooCowMusic thanks and good luck with that.
Universal suport.... That are really good news!! Can I make a request: at some point, will you add velocity sensitive pads?
Sensing velocity with the accelerometer never worked well for me on the iPhone. Perhaps I'll try again with the iPad version. It's something that has been around a long time and in my view never really worked. There's no point in a feature that when you press a pad you either get "full velocity" or "some random velocity less than full". Which is why in Looptical it has a velocity slider that you can enable to set velocity as you play. You get a lot more resolution that way.
Plus, of course, Looptical supports any number of MIDI keyboard now via Camera Connection Kit and Made For iPhone interfaces. So your absolute best bet would be to plug in a MIDI keyboard (or even drum pads) and have proper hardware velocity sensing.
I love the velocity slider idea. Nanostudio does something similar in the trg with a knob but I've been asking for a slider for a couple of years now - much more 'playable'.
There's a screenshot of the universal Ipad version of Looptical coming in several weeks. On IOS Musician FB page.
@mgmg4871 I can't find it.
Try this link. Scroll down a bit, you'll see the mixer screenshot.

That's some closed Facebook group. Can you just pull the screenshot URL?
I left that group due to nasty comments and in-fighting. Shame but I decided to follow my feelings.
Try this.

Nope didn't work. Oh well I'm sure it looks awesome
I'm sure it will be awesome!!
Shit sorry @ChrisG I'm finishing your sentences.
Lol
OK, I'm thinking about getting this. But here's my question: When creating an instrument, you put the sample on a key (say C3) and it will map it to other notes. How many keys away from that note can you use without getting artifacts or speedup/down issues?
You can put sample on several keys so that doesn't happen.
Thanks mgmg4871. Hmm... I was wanting to keep from multi-sampling due to instrument size. Does the sample change speed the further you go from the key note? How's the quality? I'm coming from nanostudio, which was pretty basic in this regard.
You can sample a single key. It's just more realistic sampling more than one. Looptical pitch shifts to fill in the blanks. No, the sample doesn't change speed. However, I d/l instruments from a user where one instrument did have that effect. The quality is very good. There are also some sampling editing capabilities.
Sounds like my iPad5 piggy bank is gonna get hit tonight! Thanks (?)
Lol. You won't regret it. This app will keep you glued to it for serious and fun music making. Btw the ipad universal version will be ready in several weeks. Check out website. moocowmusic.com

AlleycatLA you can create an instrument from a single sample, but over an octave from the note and you'll start to notice. However, many of the presets were made with just 2 notes sampled per octave (in a sweet spot range of maybe 3 or 4 octaves) and sound great. Guitars were sampled per-note, but only because I wanted each note to have a slightly different velocity as it would in reality. It is a very quick task to play, say, 3 or 4 notes in a synth app, record it there, copy to pasteboard, go to Looptical, paste that sample into the 4 keys, trim the samples. And you have your instrument. Even the creation of looping samples is made less arduous thanks to cross-fading. At looptical.com we already have a number of user-made instruments ready for you to try out.
OK thanks, that looks very sharp.
Thanks for the info, I'm loving it!
Excuse my dumb question, but I just wanted to be sure.
If I buy the current iPhone version, will it include the upcoming iPad version?
The app is currently an iPhone app that runs (great) in 2x mode on an iPad. We are adding Universal support in the next update, meaning it will then also run in full iPad resolution on an iPad. There is a lot of work involved in converting all the screens to the iPad, so it will be a few weeks before the update is available. Until then you can still use the iPhone version in 2x mode on the iPad as, it seems, most of our users are doing right now. It is also, I'd like to say, awesome on an iPhone.
The issue is, I think, will the app store allow upgrading from the original iPhone version (if we buy now) to the universal version once that arrives, or will it keep regarding the original version as iPhone-only and see the universal version as an entirely new app?
The appstore rules seem to be, sometimes, a bit baffling in this sort of situation?
@mmp no danger there other dev's have made their apps universal after initial release. I'm thinking SampleLab, TB MIDI Stuff, Arctic Keys, FL Studio. Quite a few actually.
