Mobel bell ringing simulator vs SimpLoop

Mobel is a bell ringing simulator for church bell ringers and handbell change ringers. It runs on iPhone, iPad and Apple Mac. When ringers are at home, travelling or at towers, Mobel lets them practise any method they are going to ring. It also shows the blue line diagram for any method, including bobs and singles. Practise any method on 4 to 16 bells. Ring plain courses, or touches that Mobel creates (including spliced). Add your own touches (compositions). Ring any bell; handbell ringers can ring any pair. Mobel rings the other bells, and speaks any calls. Conduct: put in bobs and/or singles yourself. See the blue line diagram for any method or composition that you have added. Line styles with or without the underlying bell numbers, or as a grid. Lines for bobs and singles. Pinch to zoom the diagram. Select from 20,000 methods in the Central Council library. Change the speed of the ringing. Ring with or without a handstroke gap. Have Mobel wait if you hesitate - or continue in perfect rhythm. Edit methods and calls to create new methods or doubles variations. Basic instructions for using Mobel on iPhone and iPad: - Tap a bell to select it for ringing. - Tap Start to start the bells ringing rounds. - Then tap Go to ring the current composition and method. - Tap the bottom of the screen to ring the bell you selected. - For handbells, tap right and left to ring a pair. - Conducting: tap the top of the screen for a bob or single. - Tap Show to see the blue line for the current method. - Then double tap to change line style, or pinch to zoom. - Tap the info (i) button to view and change settings. - Tap the Help buttons for further information. From iOS 13.4 onward you can also ring using a keyboard on iPad/iPhone. Mobel comes from AbelSim, producer of the world's best-selling change ringing simulators: Abel for Windows PCs and Mabel for Apple Mac (see www.abelsim.co.uk). Mobel is not intended for handbell tune ringers: it rings changes, not tunes. The latest version runs on iOS 12 and later. Earlier versions of Mobel are still available for previous versions of iOS.

SimpLoop - A (Fairly) Simple Looper Plugin (AUv3) SimpLoop is an audio effect plugin that can run standalone, or in any AU compatible host application such as Logic Pro or GarageBand. Overview - SimpLoop is a fairly simple looper What does "fairly simple" mean? Well, SimpLoop can be configured to be a very simple one button looper - tap to record a loop, tap again to play your loop, then tap to stop and clear the loop. Alternatively, you could assign 6 button functions and two expression controllers to a MIDI hardware controller for an extremely dynamic live looping setup. To help understand what SimpLoop is, it might be easier to cover what SimpLoop is not... SimpLoop does not have any form of tempo sync capability, or support for multiple sync'd loop tracks or A/B "verse" / "chorus" sections, etc. SimpLoop also does not have an undo function or support for importing audio files (*), and it does not remember the recorded loop between sessions. There are several more advanced looper apps that do those sort of things, but if you're new to looping, or you just need a compact and basic looper to include in your setup, SimpLoop was designed for you! (*) You can export your recorded loops as .WAV files. SimpLoop was also designed for live, "on the fly" looping, and could almost be considered "old-school" now, as it draws inspiration from hardware guitar looping pedals that started becoming popular in the early 2000's. As a live looping "veteran" myself, I wanted to create a looper that included some of my favourite hardware pedal features, plus a few things I wished that those pedals had back in the day! As well as basic looping functionality with a 60 second maximum loop time, SimpLoop includes reverse and half-speed toggles, and a multiply function that doubles the current loop length. For example, you could record a one-bar rhythmic loop, then tap Multiply twice to create a four-bar loop made up of 4 repeats of your original recording. Additional features include an auto-record option, variable record fade time for seamless loops (great for creating drones!) as well as different mode settings to determine how the loop, stop and clear commands work. For maximum hands-free looping enjoyment, I recommend using SimpLoop with some kind of MIDI controller that can send MIDI CCs via buttons / switches or knobs / expression pedal inputs.
