Looperator is the ultimate slicing and processing plugin for all styles of electronic music. It chops up your audio and turns it into something new. Thanks to its quick & intuitive interface it makes designing subtle rhythmic enhancements to spectacular effect pyrotechnics easy and fun. In the process, you can dispose of the classics like Filters and Reverbs, but also trippy Loop and Vinyl manipulations. Build a looping effects sequence, with discrete settings for each of Looperator's stunning engines, then bring everything to life using the comprehensive modulation system on a per-step basis. Looperator makes you sound as if you worked on your track for hours and hours and really all it took was a click of a button. ::FEATURES:: • Audio Unit v3 & Standalone • Rearrange your groove! Chop the input signal into 16 slices and freely assign them to each sequence step on the Slice track, then rhythmically stutter selected steps on the Loop track. • Flexible filters Looperator’s Filter provides per-step frequency shaping of the left and right channels independently. • Multi-effects galore Two User FX modules each deliver dynamic effects sequencing via a rich and varied line-up of high-quality processors. • User steps Each sequencer track offers 20 ready-made step options. Much of the time, you won’t need to go any further than that, but when you do, the four User-defined steps also available to each track give you full and precise control of five processor parameters per effect. • Motion and modulation Every User step configuration features five adjustable parameters, each automated using a simple knob, a Randomizer, an Envelope Follower or one of 20 preset parameter modulation curves with adjustable start and end points. When it comes to animating your Looperator effects sequences, the possibilities are literally endless! • Fast, focused workflow Like all Sugar Bytes software, Looperator has been developed with operational fluidity at the top of the agenda. Looperator’s snappy workflow keeps up with even the fastest-moving producer. • There’s more… The feature list just keeps on giving! Seven per-module and global Mix blending modes; intelligent randomization options throughout; super-smooth step transitions; deep MIDI integration and control; limitless undo/redo; standalone functionality and more. It all comes together to make Looperator nothing less than a state-of-the-art loop design powerhouse that no electronic musician should be without.
