Soon to release a new version 0.2 for the template of the main page. Other pages evolving also every day..
Stay tuned
Miisa is sick now, so have to wait for liveset demos. We already checked them with our band drummer, and they are like a special instruments when played together.
Added to version 0.2 of template:
– added stop for other clips and starting the clock when pressing ‘rec’.
– 10th clip will also stop the seq – otherwise recorded "song clip" button needs to be manually stopped.
– added some nice pics to color based tracks to have better identification.
– create mixes by choosing clips from different scenes. First row idea can also be mixed (implemented earlier).
– some general clip settings changed to more properly fit to this idea.

Added also 'HUGE' review video for showing many features from my Loopy Pro liveset template. Sorry for some loud basses, should have adjusted bass volumes more..
i
m planning to share a liveset template. The challenge is that there are several auv3s used to get best out of it. I will probably release it without content. The following auv3 needs to be there and presets needs to be manually created to some of them to have them in dials properly:Glitchcore, Koala fx, Turnado, Bleass delay and Granulator, Perforator and some crush and delay separatelly for bass, Reverb and mastering effect can vary more. Also control resets an some automation, might need to adjusted..
So many days spend on this so probably there will maybe a nominal coffee needed to get access to it 🤔. Do you think it`s worth releasing with these notes?
@AkiVilla: Very cool stuff. Btw, there is a way to share presets. In the Loopy Pro folder there is a folder called called Effect Module Presets. These include the presets that you add to Loopy Pro by choosing New when the AUv3 preset popup is open. You can make copies of individual preset files and if people add then to their Effect Module Presets (and own the AUv3s, the presets will be available to them)
Thanks for the hint! And positive feedback! Have created hundreds of presets already, but some typos here and there and multiplications to be cleaned.. but I really like Loopys way to create preset even with Koala and Atom 👍
Hi All. And thanks for the support! Finally I got liveset to hand over to You

FInd some reviews and use cases in my channel:

If you would like to have some tutorial and more info, please support me with some coffee, I probably will add effect presets and explain the routing if needed..

Note! I have cleaned the loops and samples from template.. My daughter is already creating her own version, and recording loops and oneshots from her own ideas. Loopy Pro is so good for it ;-) Feel free to spread the word, would like to hear out some experiments based on the template. And hope that my name or link to my youtube is mentioned, if you use it
A bit of a teaser is template I'm preparing to sync Loopy Pro with Koala app as an input and use its cababilities to live effs etc. in my daw template main page..
Additional plans:
Some bonus functionality and will create tasting sounds / loops from my instrument lab page to Koala
Planning also to include mpc and sp404 mk2 to workflow, and plan separate template to them..
And still trying to improve more generic templates
Improve the bus effects and mastering effects in the future..
@espiegel123 Is there a description how the name is formatted with the presets? Knowing that preset containing folder which you mentioned and trying to create a share in icloud for hundreds of them and some are enumerated..
I am not sure actually.
Hi All. A short demo of my Loopy Pro & Koala template
Viewable soon.. Note check it in Youtube to see some text
What a disappoinment looking the 5.0 update for sp 404 mk. A clumsy Serato integration.. Much better off with building these templates for Loopy Pro and integrate to Koala or even Sp 404 mk 2 or Mpc Live 2. Just saying my direct thoughts, sorry if someone feel offended. Maybe some Dj's like the update 🤔..So this is just pushing me to make different type of combinations 👍 Or maybe a dj page is needed, if that is the future
Here is preview of the current version of the drum lab page and also a view to newest version of main page new features. If you feel that disply of the templates are too crowded, feel free e.g. to remove scene lines to suite your needs. And also some other parts can be easily reorganized
I have to apologize that this daw template is usable mainly with 12.9" or 13" ipads. But will soon publish a compact version with Koala integration and Grand Finale mastering and remove all other routing and mixture of auv3 instruments and effects from this compact version.
Here is how it's going to look like with Loopy Pro married with Koala - compact edition and Grand Finale for mastering to keep it simple. Do you want this template? I can add it to patchstorage if there are comments for it
Hi @AkiVilla! How did you integrate Koala? I'm new to Loopy Pro and was using Koala before that, I'm interested to learn what can be achieved while combining both! Thanks in advance!
Hi. I just put Koala as an auv3 audio input (create input channel to mixer). Then routed it to all colours, thats why it will be recorded. Additional functionality is then to use Loopy pro's preset handling and create preset of your Koala songs (or soundsets) and browse them with dial. Also added buttons for opening Koala UI and for muting it. Then you can record midi in Koala and make nice loop. Play it with effects inside Koala and record with baked in live effects.
I will need to wrap my head around that, thanks for the reply! The preset handling with a dial could be very interesting, I will try it out later!
I like this idea of a compact version of the Loopy + Koala template.. it would probably fit OK on my iPad 6.. would love to give it a spin.. thanks..
@royor Thanks🎵 Will sent a link to here and also publish it in patchstore. Just wondering is it enough to record from Koala to Loopy. Or would it be nice to add second instance of koala to be able to record scenes or clips back to koala also? 🤔
https://patchstorage.com/loopy-pro-with-koalas-template/
Now the first version of more compact version. Koala is as an input to loops, but also as an effect so acting as an output recorder.
@AkiVilla Thank you kindly.. I was going to say it that it would be cool for having another koala as an output recorder - BUT - you already did it.. 🙏 cool.. Will give it a run through later tonight..
Hi. Sorry noticed some template ’bugs’ with Koala as an effect in output channel both UI and enable/disable toggles not working.. need to be handled from the bottom row. And you need to also manually enable the input of Koala as an effect in the output by "headphones" button to get sound out of this. Probably you could create a preset to get the input of second Koala automatically updated. I could also include this but it requires a separate file for effect presets. Anyways I think it’s usable and open for customization 👍
I’m planning to publish a preview of my newest Loopy Pro template’s instrument lab page with 14 easily replaceable and accessible auv3 instruments and 15 effect buses with different auv3 effects to manipulate sounds by adjusting sends while recording or to create monsterous sounds, changing presets with dials and some other extras ☺️ SO far having no performance issues with my M3 or M1 ipads.
Have to admit that this "lab" pages needs 13" or 12.9" ipad. it's almost impossible to use in my 10.5" ipad..
This is like you could do also in aum, but much nicer to have the dials to access quickly presets for instruments and effects. Also added a "recorder" so you can create instrument or beat mixes with in this page and baked in effectst to them as well as panning and volume. Thenk it can be moved to "song" page by push of the button, or exported as an audio file to anyplace.
All the effects are in their own buses so you can mix them together - imagine the possibilities to sculture sound by combining them to any combination of 14 auv3 instruments.
Here is a preview of the page. It'sjust scratching the surface again. Hopefully I can find more time to make more proper video, to really show its potential.
Top row are the Effect buses, then some mix levels and especially like those effect preset browsing dials.
And below there are some auv3 instruments like Xinematix, Korg Module and some synths.. with those preset browsing cababilities - the small dots are for browsing with one step left or right.
Right side are clips with some hardcoded lengths and specific color. Some automation to mix and move clips to main song page. But maybe best workflow would be directly recording to it.
Not yet sharing the full template - It has hundreds of adjustments, so probably when its shared, you might be cleaning it to your use, if you are interested.
xy effect is for controlling selected Turnado effect with mix level and "dictator". Didn't use it like so many other effects and their hundreds of presets and mixtures
Also published a poll to see what would you like to have as a bonus while supporting my work - building templates for Loopy Pro:
https://buymeacoffee.com/akivilla/what-content-benefit-would-like
Added also access to more complex(meaning more features) and containing templates to supporters! Will add more in upcoming days / weeks, maybe including some sounds created with the templates.
Building up Loopy Pro and Koala integration. While doing that noticed some bugs in my previous templates routings. Hope to get it fixed soon. To hear out the effect buses needs to be routed to 1+2 main outputs in addition to colours, so you can monitor the sound that will be recorded.
Koala integration is done with build in reverb, 3 Koalafx instances and 6 Koala auv3's.
And would like to keep Grand FInale (Klevgränd) as a mastering effect in output.
Some cleaning up still to be done for remainings from main template. Trying to solve that issue of activating output to be recorded to another instance of Koala. Now it's input needs to activated always. Seems that Koala's state saving not working for activating its input..
So the template is soon to be published - much better tha previous one. I think this is quite easy then to clean up if you want more compact version, especially in the song page with huge load of scenes and clips.
Especially nice are those xy controller for realtime recording of effect movements, they are preadjusted, but of course you can change and modify them also
This "headset" need to be activated always manually - state is not saved in the song or template for some reason
Here I have a clumsy demo of the possibilities with the template for Koala and LP combination.. I'm really just scratching a surface here..
Hi All. I think in my musical "career" (40 years active) I have never used word Game Changer, and actually hated it a bit.
Now I think I managed to push Loopy Pro to that level especially in the Sound Creation Page. Eager to make a demo of it, but this is so easy to be innovative and combine sounds / effects and really many of them. I think it's kind of maximized now. Of cause you can clean this. Now having 12 replacable auv3 instruments, Plus effect buses from A to P. Ok, now you all know that I'm "appoholic" :-)
