The subject pretty much explains it all. I just wanted to know if anyone knows of another freeware or non freeware product that is similar to the features in Yoink. What I'm mainly looking for is sample freeze, and speed manipulation of the locked sample.

Thanks,
kyle

a part from the kaoss pad I ignore the existence of something similar to yoink.

but I'm making a simple looper for a friend of mine.
three slots, each with:
1 min. of mono rec time(with led bling on loop restart)
pitch up/down/reset
loop/reverseloop/alternatedloop modes
lp/bp/hp four-stages filter
pan/volume

plus four slow host-sync lfos with a simple six-rows mod-matrix, cc implementation and multi-outputs version included.
cpu usage seems quite low.
no funky xy pads, though, sorry.

just have to make few other tests and the gui.

Tweakbench's Yoink

Sounds like something out of Ghormenghast.

A few things worth trying:

Mobius
Loopy Llama
Liveslice
Memory

Each one will do things a little differently, but are all great and can do some nice things with buffered loops.

Thanks guys, I checked out the programs listed, and they all seem fine, but what I was looking for was a little different. The program waiting man is working on seems really cool... Maybe when it's finished you can post some more info on it, and how much your going to charge for it. But just to clearify it was the speed manipulation part that I'm looking for. The ablitly to smoothly change the loop size on the fly. I have heard this effect a lot. It will kind of sound like(if you can image with me for a sec)a click or small sounding percusion sound, boucing forward quicker with each bounce until the loop starts to sound like a high pitched square sound. although not all producers pull it that high. Most just bounce it quickly in to a triplet, so it adds a weird sort of techno suffle to the rhythm. Anyway, I've tried many many times to do this manually, and while I'm able to get close, it never really sounds excatly right. What I was able to do with yoink was pull the start and end points from the loop like I wanted to. The only problem is that the program clicks from time to time, and also does not seem to accept automation information quickly enough from me to get the transistions I would like. Thanks for you time guys.

Back to work,
Kyle

Note: I just noticed that PTV posted angstolooper, that seems pretty cool too. Thanks. I'll check it out later tonight.

So you need a sampler with automatable loop points? (that will cause clicks in any sampler btw).

Try shortcircuit, chronoX, in fact most samplers, kontakt and halion included, will allow loop points to be automated.

Sorry if I misunderstood (never tried Yoink).

Looking for a vst that is similar to Tweakbench's Yoink
