Hi all,

thank you all for your suggestions and interest.đź’ś
Quick Update to actual finished implementations:
- manual Slicing
- more advanced sequencing with randomization and per step automation
- Auto fading Option for incoming audio, if you like click free pads (Always a thing If you record a constant Signal that cuts harshly)
- Drawing own LFO curves, now supports 8 LFOs
- many user-friendly stuff like setting default preset folder, choose randomization-targets..)

Fixed some misbehavoir und uncovered edgecases. Most time I invested in making it also more stable and (thread)safe in general (8 loops with automation and morphing between snapshots can be demanding..).

I think i will stop now adding more features to it since it feels really complete to me. Not so much overload, focused but also deep If you like it to be deep. Not perfect, but neat.

Hope i can provide some fully working demo version soon. I'll try to reach my 5 message peak so you can DM me here lol.Hopefully hear you soon!

Hi Folks,

quick update. Added a few things like distortion types for each track , "control all" feature so you can quickly modify all channel buttons at the same time if you wish to. Internal Sidechaining so tracks can modify each other... also managed really painful debug sessions to make it more stable and safe. Made a webpage - will go live soon hopefully. Hear you soon

Can't wait!

Did you manage to solve this "5 messages limit" thingy? I've sent you a DM a couple of days ago requesting a demo version but I didn't get a reply.

I’ll have to wait for the Mac version, but this looks like a really fun looper.

Yes, I would be happy to test a mac build, or even compile it…
Just answer more often, two more posts and PM will work…
Is the Loopers Delight community informed?

Hi all,

quick update - each channel now has timestretching based on granular synthesis AND a spectral morphing option via A and B channel - things are getting really flexible with this. Its not a conventional Looper (it can though) anymore, but has some nice sound exploring options for ambient and microsounds. Also drag and drop your own loops works now as expected. Stay tuned and patient, i still need a little time to make it a sweet 1.0 version :)

I'd need an apple dev license as far as i know, but this will be my first thing to take care off after providing the stable win build (havent you loopy pro on MAC 8) .
Will reach out, since i first have to get a used macbook to build and test it properly
Reg Loopers Delight - I havent posted anything yet until this thing is finished (in my head) :D

I’m didn’t used to be hard to get it. Mines still good from 20 yrs ago apparently. At least I still get the emails. (Apple dev lic).

To get registered as dev at Apple is as easy as registering. As soon you want to notarize you would have to pay. I never paid though, but running XCode is all you need. A user has to jump through some hoops to get the quarantine flags removed if its not notarized... Most know that as free or open source software or from small developers is rarely notarized...

HerziHelmut sounds German, where do you live? I am in Berlin btw...

„spectral morphing option via A and B channel“? Ok I’m even more excited now, will be interesting to see how it’s implemented.

Thank you for supporting Linux! :)

Its not a Zynaptiq Morph or Kyma for sure, but you can get lush sounding Stuff with it. Technically i had to make compromises on latency free purposes a looper should support - so its a nice "addition" to play with, it feels very direct and gets really interesting results :)

Will there be an option to disengage it for lower latency, sort of like Infiltrator latency is only increased when using FFT modes?
