Loop cursor/playback (L1):
PLAY and STOP in the DAW starts and stops the
loop playback, respectively. The loop can be altered while it is rolling. The loop
cursor indicates the sounding chord and shows the exact time positions within
each segment.
Chord information display (L2):
Provides the chord symbol of the sounding
chord, i.e. root note, key, and added note (interval above the root, e.g. 7th).
Key (L3):
Defines the general key of the loop. This function transposes the loop
between keys.
Inversion (L4):
Inversion Up pushes the lowest notes an octave up. Inversion
Down pushes the highest notes an octave down. This is like turning the entire
loop outward or inward in overall pitch. There is no visual feedback for different
degrees of inversion.
Length (L5):
Defines the length of the loop, i.e. the number of bars (or fraction
thereof) on the MIDI track. Length is correlated to Speed
(L6)
. The setting '1 bar'
at a speed setting of '1 bar' corresponds to 1 bar on the MIDI track in your DAW.
The default setting is 2 bars, with a playback speed set at 1/2, which results in
one full loop cycle across 2 bars on the MIDI track.
Speed (L6):
Determines how fast chords are played back. Speed is correlated to
Length
(L5)
.
Loop presets (L7):
By default, the plugin provides a selection of loop presets as
a starting point to work from.
Saving loops (L8):
Loops can be saved for further editing at a later time.
A/B toggle (L9):
This feature lets you switch between and work on two di
ff
erent
loops for immediate comparison. Copy state A to state B and vice versa.
Drag to export (L10):
Click-and-drag the MIDI notes of the loop to the MIDI
timeline in your DAW.
Chord segments (C1):
Chords are represented as segments of the loop. A loop
can be composed of up to eight chords of equal duration. The minimum loop size
is one chord.
Adding and deleting chords (C2):
Click on ‘+’ between two chord segments to
add a new chord at that position. Clicking on ‘-‘ will delete chords. The respective
chord segment to be deleted is indicated on mouse rollover.
Loop Control: General (L tags)
This is the editing interface for the entire loop. Click on the black dots in
the chord segments to switch between chords you want to edit
(C)
. The
selected chord is highlighted.
Switching from Loop Control to Chord Control (C)
to edit individual
chords follows the same logic
:
Click on one of the black dots on a chord
segment
(C1)
to switch to Chord Control and to select that chord to be
edited (see next page).
The features
chord randomizer feature (R)
and
NOTES (N)
are laid out
on the next pages.
