Loop

Polyend Loop is an 8-track performance looper built to turn ideas into complete arrangements without interrupting the creative flow. Four independent mono or stereo loop tracks sit alongside a complete four-track sample-based drum machine and advanced sequencer, giving musicians one instrument for recording, rhythm-making, arranging and performance.

Each loop track can hold up to 52 seconds of audio and use one of more than 100 built-in effects. Record instrument, line-level or microphone signals, use the stereo input to capture two independent mono sources simultaneously, or load complete loops from microSD. Independent Forward, Reverse and Ping-Pong playback modes, Varispeed, free loop lengths, volume, gain and panning provide detailed control over every track. Individual loop tracks are stored as WAV files for transfer and later mixing in a DAW.

The four-track drum machine includes more than 500 drum kits, more than 350 ready-to-use Rhythms and more than 2,000 drum samples, ranging from classic analogue drum machines to acoustic drums and modern electronic percussion. Each Project provides 16 patterns with 16 steps per pattern, pattern chaining and independent control of more than 15 drum parameters on every step. All sequencing and editing can be performed directly from the hardware, and users can record their own drum samples to create original kits and rhythms.

The factory library also includes more than 180 loops. Up to 1,000 Projects can be stored and recalled, each containing loop tracks, drum patterns, sound settings and effects. Quantized next/previous Project changes make it possible to organize intro, verse, chorus and outro sections and move through them at the end of the bar. MIDI clock, transport, CC and Program Change work over TRS MIDI and USB MIDI.

Key selling points

• 8-track performance architecture. Four audio loop tracks plus four sample-based drum tracks in one standalone instrument.

• Four independent loop tracks. Record up to 52 seconds on each mono or stereo track and assign one of more than 100 effects.

• Flexible loop playback. Select Forward, Reverse or Ping-Pong playback independently for every loop track.

• Varispeed or free timing. Follow Project tempo with speed and pitch changes, or keep playback and pitch independent.

• Complete four-track drum machine. Four sample-based drum tracks and an advanced sequencer are integrated directly into the Loop workflow.

• Extensive factory library. Explore 500+ drum kits, 350+ Rhythms, 2,000+ drum samples and 180+ loops.

• Deep per-step sequencing. Customize more than 15 drum parameters independently on every step and chain patterns into longer arrangements.

• Custom drum sounds. Record drum samples through the audio input and use them to build original kits and rhythms.

• Arrangement-ready Projects. Store up to 1,000 Projects and use bar-quantized next/previous changes to create complete arrangements.

• microSD workflow. Load short samples or complete loops and save individual loop tracks as WAV files for DAW transfer.

• Performance-ready effects. Shape loop tracks in real time with reverb, delay, modulation, filtering, panning and sound-shaping effects.

• Complete synchronization. MIDI clock and transport can be sent or received over TRS MIDI or USB MIDI.

• Flexible audio input. Connect instrument, line-level or microphone sources, including two mono signals at once.

• Assignable expression control. Map virtually any performance parameter to an expression pedal for hands-free control.
