    Result of today's efforts:

    I thought I understood what you are working on, but what is the grid doing here?

    (You are not playing it as pads that fast are you?)

    I thought the interface was going to look like the grid of loops. More features means a s̶t̶e̶e̶p̶ longer learning curve. 😳

    As an aside, the “steep learning curve” means something is quickly learned contrary to colloquial usage.

    The loop is playing, and I’m chopping it up as it plays. And yep, it can be a grid of loops. Or anything you like. The screen is fully editable, and there’ll be presets that ship with it.

    This is a great thread. Some of this is beyond my understanding and usage. I hope Loopy Pro is usable for other than pros. Include instructions and a manual! Thanks for peak!

    Any chance we could get a screen shot for how you set up each "slice"?

    I posted a screenshot earlier actually - it’s this (now it has a quantisation setting too):

    It will automatically divide on the transients close to the regular subdivision points so even if the loop’s a little off it’ll work

    Yep, it’s designed to work as shallowly or as deeply as you like.

    Oh right! Duh... Sometimes putting 2 and 2 together isn't so easy.

    Here's the split on transients in action:

    Note the whole screen is editable - here's the edit mode:

    And here's the setup for the button grid:


    Also cool: the way the buttons are lighting up in the grid, the same mechanism is used to send MIDI feedback to a controller that's bound, so you get lights on stuff like the Launchpad.

    Aha! These extra insights are helping contextualize the flexibility. I now see how you set up the grid to the transients (yes, mind blown) but how can one set up a workspace like the one you show here with a mix of loops and one shots? Or are the one shots derived from carving up the loops only?

    Fallon is gonna have a blast with this thing. B)

    This button here creates the one-shots - they appear on the screen like squares with a linear waveform:

    From left to right, those elements you can add to the workspace are:

    • loop
    • one-shot
    • button grid (for sampling, for example, like above)
    • button
    • dial
    • horizontal slider
    • vertical slider
    • x-y pad

    The controls (from the button grid down) are programmable, so you can set them to do whatever you like; they use the same system as MIDI learn. For example, this is the list of actions for a button that you can configure:

    Dang, you’ve been busy. The possibilities here seem nearly limitless... but yet the UX still has that intuitive accessibility that makes Loopy so great. I can’t wait to try out this sexy beast!

    Well this looks really amazing. The fact that the UI seems extremely customizable appeals a lot to me. Very much looking forward to try this out.

    This looks like instant purchase territory to me. Apps like this just put the fun factor back into music making aswell as become professional creativity tools. Can't wait.

    Between what Michael has just shown and the Atom 2 capabilities I'm really thinking of buying one soon.

    Indeed. @Michael We know Loopy Pro is an AU host but can it host AU MIDI?

    I see a 4x4 grid... Would you consider offering an 8x2? My beatstep pro needs a challenge.

    They can control LK too. Gonna need to get three of the things 😉

    You can bind it to your hardware however you like!

    In other news... pathologically obsessive attention to detail? Dunno where he gets that from. 😂

    Pretty sure that’s a launchpad (he’s my QA team, and is reasonably familiar)
