    Hi Michael, just a hello to say I‘ve been watching with excitement. Is it truly just a few more weeks before beta?! Thanks for keeping us updated as we get closer.

    Hi! Yes indeed!

    Will it support combing ? (taking different parts from different takes)

    Yeah I intend to do comping - haven’t yet decided to do it in 1.0 or shortly after release; probably the latter. All the facilities are there already, just needs the UI though.

    Added to my list. Sounds good!

    Thanks! If you're interested in the potential of these functions, I recommend checking out AndreLafosse's YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/andrelafosse

    Andre is the man. This performance of his is my go-to for showing the improvisational potential of "advanced" looping features: one guitar, one EDP, nothing prerecorded.

    If we can get some of the EDP features (Multiply, Insert, Replace) in Loopy Pro, that will be fantastic!

    I really went into this expecting to hate it. And then when I realize he's covering "Sign o' the Times"! Sacrilege! But...it's really pretty good. Impressed.

    There’s a brief interlude of "Black Satin" by Miles Davis in there too, as well as some of Andre’s own compositions. (The melodic themes of his live performances are not generally improvised, I think, but there’s an improvisational element to the rhythm loops and the transitions.)

    Any chance of a look at what the AppStore description will look like @Michael ? -or is that perhaps still under wraps?
    Maybe it’s considered bad luck or poor etiquette to do that? I can’t remember seeing it before for any other apps.

    I’ve lost track of all the capabilities that have been mentioned so far. It would be be nice to see them laid out.

    I’ll be making some walkthrough vids shortly. Don’t have an App Store description yet.

    Very creative use of the looper. Would love to see an interview where he explains the gear he uses. I’m intrigued by the bass sound. Is that another pedal or the looper itself?.

    Not sure; it might be an octave pedal. Andre is happy to tell you anything you could possibly want to know about looping, and then some: https://www.youtube.com/user/andrelafosse/featured.

    If @Michael feels like answering another question, I'm wondering how he sees the new Loopy.
    Is it, as I am imagining it will be for me, a much more fully featured, super capable looper, with great capabilities for live performance, or has it crossed the line into being able to be used in a more general purpose DAW like way?

    Primarily the former, supported by DAW-like capabilities for capturing/editing performances and also driving automation.

    That’s what I thought about when I saw that tile layout. I mean those turntable tiles 😍

    I'd recommend speed reading through the thread. There is lots of information. This is a big project with anlot of capabilities not easily summarized in a paragraph or two.

    @theinfinate Can’t you just use the built-in screen recorder?

    I didn't actually think of that but it won't work as I want to hit the buttons on screen so id need loopy to be open on the screen

    That my friend, is what a MIDI controller is for 🤓

    yeah I know and I do have many but I have my phone is mounted on my bike as I loop as im riding a bike (as you do) so I wanted to keep the setup as minimal as I can. I use a insta go 2 to film and sync audio in post but thought my phone has a good camera in it so I t would be great if I could do it all with just phone. Also I like to see the app and loops in motion

    "Looping while riding a bike" has got to be the most niche audiobus forum use case ever. I'm in awe. It's glorious! 👏👏👏

    I can see a feature request on the horizon. Can it sync to my bicycle wheels :lol:

    @Michael Good evening. I haven't read all of this currently 40 pages thread but wanted to pose a question. Will Loopy Pro be able to send out midi information for track status. Say I have a controller with RGB pads like the launchpad pro or arturia minilab. Could it send out information as to which loops are active, playing, or currently recording?

    Would be cool for a loopyHD update as well but just wondering. I know the point of a lot of iPad apps are to utilize the touch screen for interaction but just thought it might be a pretty cool "Pro" feature if possible.

    Yep, that works by default (no need to program additional midi send commands), for any action, including track playback and solo and other stuff like assigning a track or effect parameter value (on state will be shown when the value matches so you can make mini sliders and stuff).

    For the merging action as well ?
    Would an external midi controller know that two tracks have been merged together ?
