It listens to control information about notes, dynamics, and other parameters, and it loops them in a way an audio looper would process pieces of audio. Since the MIDI loops remain in the control domain, many other processes can happen simultaneously on top of them - so you can explore timbre modulation, envelope adjustments, and way more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe designed the controls of the Midilooper to be easy to access so that the device comes in handy and enhances your music-making flow. Your fresh ideas are just a few button presses away: “[The Midilooper is] highly recommended if you’re trying to simplify your workflow and\/or get away from menu-diving outside of the computer,” says a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/waveformmagazine.com\/waveform-reviews\/bastl-instruments-midi-looper\/?fbclid=IwAR1oTdUtHAlyKI_6XIzrP0beI4CrlXVJA406p1U_izL99D0zUOF_HuNUA-U\"\u003erecent review\u003c\/a\u003e in The Waveform Magazine, and we couldn’t agree more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePlug \u0026amp; Play\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe device fits into any playful production workflow, and it can be synchronized with other gear like synths and controllers either by MIDI clock or analog clock, or it can also run on its own clock (tap tempo\/free running).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Midilooper offers 3 voices that can each be assigned to a different MIDI channel, allowing it to control 3 other devices. Each voice can be individually recorded, muted, overdubbed, or cleared as you go.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Midilooper also offers some basic processing of the recorded information: transposition, velocity locking and shifting, quantization, shuffle, humanization (random variations of velocity), adjusting the length of the loop, or doubling and halving of the playback speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition, it features CV and trigger inputs to integrate with modular synthesizers so you can reset, re-trigger, manipulate velocity, and transpose.
