Loopy 2 iPad App

Loopy 2 iPad App

Beatboxers, do what Dub FX does with his pedals on your iPhone using the Loopy 2 app.

Create music by layering looped recordings of singing, beatboxing, voice looping, or playing an instrument with a savvy, sophisticated, tactile new looper that totally reinvents the formula.

While other music creation apps tend to be either powerful but difficult to learn, or easy to use but limited in features, Loopy 2 doesn’t compromise.

NEW FEATURES:

Fully configurable fade-in and fade-out!
“Re-record” option when clearing, to re-record a track
Chained mute: Mute another track while counting-in recording, and the track will mute once recording ends
Option to disable shake to reset

RECORD AND LAYER

– Six beautifully rendered circular loops, with simple yet powerful controls.
– Count-in and count-out lets you keep your hands free to play an instrument.
– Overdub, to build beautiful, complex soundscapes from many layers.
– Support for tracks of any multiple or fraction of a beat, for flexible and expressive looping.
– Sophisticated audio or visual metronome to keep you in time – no matter what time signature you choose.
– Perfectly synchronized, low latency audio engine.

IMPORT AND CONSTRUCT

– Import loops from your computer via iTunes, with support for AIFF, WAV, MP3, M4A, CAF and more.
– Bring in audio from many other audio apps with integrated MAPI AudioPaste, with support for Intua general pasteboard format.
– Imported loops are automatically fit to your beat, no matter what tempo.

MANIPULATE AND TWEAK

– Full stereo audio, with pan controls for each track to create custom stereoscapes.
– Fix up timing by twisting tracks around to line up the beat, or make funky sound effects with dynamic time shifting.
– Drag a track onto another track to merge tracks, and clear up a space.
– Live, dynamic tempo adjustment to speed up or slow down your creations, without altering the pitch.

PERFORM AND SHARE

– Record whole performances with in-app session recording facilities.
– Upload performances or single loops straight to SoundCloud, and post to Twitter or Facebook.
– Email audio clips (with automatic conversion to compressed AAC audio).
– Share audio with many other audio apps with MAPI AudioCopy.
– Transfer loops or performances to your computer via iTunes.
