User reviews

The future is nostalgic.

Loopseque… hardly can I remember when the first Loopseque got installed on my iPhone - but I can say it was a looong time ago.

I remember creating my first mixes, amazed by the simplicity of the creation-process: Imagine a circle divided into 16 spaces (= 16th notes). A graphic „dial“ wanders round the circle (like on a radar-screen), and if you fill one (or more) of the 16 spaces with sound, each time the dial passes through the filled space, the sound(s) is(are) played.
Sounds simple?
That’s because it IS simple!
The user does not have to worry about timing, note-lengths, key or pitch - you will come to great-sounding results, even if you never before even thought about how to make music!

With each sequence resembling one circle, you can:
A) Play several sequences at the same time: Beats, Bass, Melody, Chords, FX (effects) are all at your fingertips, and any change you make will become immediately audible; your ears alone decide whether a sequence is „finished“, or whether you want to add -or subtract- sounds. As you may imagine, no theoretical knowledge about music, cadences, etc. is necessary!

And the best part is: You can not only play sequences together at the same time (and they are always „in time“, automatically), but you can also arrange complete orders of sequences. By doing that, you actually create a song with different parts, tension and release, and much more…

Now, at the time of writing this review, Loopseque 8 has not been updated for 3 years - albeit, it’s running fine on my Macbook Pro 14“ M3pro - and I’m diving deeply into nostalgia - with joy, as I feel that very same excitement I felt a decade ago! It’s just so simple & satisfying.

If you ever toyed with the thought of trying to create beats of your own - I can only recommend Loopseque! Compared to Garage Band, Loopseque is the Graphic Novel, while GB is an elaborated novel (with many, many more features; but that brings up the problem that you need to learn to master these features, which took me a few months, and I have been playing guitar for 3 decades & home-recorded since the good old times, when „musicassettes“ were still the ubiquitous storage media!

Wanna Make Music?
Get Loopseque - it’s so worth it!

Tolle App- dennoch bitte zwei Prozesse optimieren damit das kreative Arbeiten mehr Spaß macht

Liebes Team,
Ich habe mir mit einiger Erwartung den Loopseque 8 gekauft.
Zwei zu optimierende Vorgänge sind mir im längeren Spielen damit aufgefallen:

Es gibt wenig Aussagen in der Anleitung zu Thema Intergration neuer Sounds.
Nach etwas Bastelei habe ich beim IPad den Weg gefunden, wie dies (statt Umweg mit iTunes und dem Anschluss des IPads an den stationären Mac) sehr komfortabel geht. Selbst erstellte, oder gekaufte Soundbibliotheken mit einer Email an mich selber schicken. Diese Mail auf dem iPad öffnen und dann die Anhänge(Sounds) unter Dateien im Ordner von Loopseque 8 ablegen. Vielleicht gebt ihr diesen Weg bei der Anleitung mit an. Es ist echt komfortabel.

Was für Sounds nutze ich im musikalischen Prozess wann und wo?
Es gibt ein echtes musikalisch kreatives Manko bei eurem Tool: es ist nicht möglich, Sound vorzuhören. Stattdessen muss man sie auf einem Loop „belegen“, ohne sie vorher gehört zu haben, und hört sie erst, wenn der Loop auslöst. Das ist musikalisch eine echte Herausforderung. Und echt verkehrt herum. Ich weiß erst, wie es klingt, wenn ich es getan habe.
Wie wäre ein simples zusätzliches Touchfeld, welches es ermöglicht, ausgwählte Sounds zu spielen, unabhängig von den Loopfeldern. Wichtig: während die bereits erstellten Loops laufen. Dann könnte man sich viel bewusster als Musiker treiben lassen und aus der unendlichen Zahl von möglichen Sounds durch Hören im Flow aussuchen.
Bis jetzt wird die Kreativität leider massiv vom Tool eingeschränkt.

Es wäre echt toll, wenn jemand dieses simple Feld programmieren könnte. Es dürfte die Aktzeptanz eures ansonsten tollen Programms unter Musikern deutlich erhöhen.

Mit den besten Grüßen
Hardrada

Perfect for beatmaking live

Djing and beat making in one? I’m already thrilled. Let me know how I can support!

Discovery of the year.

I don’t mind using the piano roll workflow or the launchpad type of controller but I prefer the “round” style of controller like Concentric or Patterning for quick variations. This takes this concept to the nth degree with scrollable bands upon bands of circular midi steppers. Next I have to figure out how to get my own samples in and to become more adept at slicer/timing features. It does load in AUM.
