- | ====== Loopy Pro: Setting Loop Lengths ====== | ||
- | While you can set a pre-determined length for an individual clip in its settings, it is more typical (and easier) to use the Master Length setting and the Count In/Count Out settings. These can be set globally for all clips or made local to a color or individual clip. The text in the settings dialog is helpful for understanding recording quantization. The Count-In settings determine when recording starts in relation to when you tap and the master clock. The Count-Out settings determine when the recording ends in relation to your tap and the the master clock | ||
- | |||
- | If you find changing the master length with the popup inconvenient. It is quick and easy to add buttons to your layout or set up MIDI actions to do it. | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Master Length ===== | ||
- | |||
- | Changing the master (cycle) length is handled in the tempo/clock popup as shown below. | ||

- | ===== Key Settings ===== | ||
- | |||
- | When you tap to start or stop recording, the recording starts or stops at a time determined by the following settings: | ||
- | |||
- | * **Auto Count Out** - when this is on, recording automagically ends after the Count Out duration (set by Count Out Quantization). When Auto Count Out is off, Loopy waits for you to tap and stops at the next multiple of the Count Out duration (in synch with the master cycle when appropriate). | ||
- | * **Count In Quantization** - options: None, Master, Custom. After you tap, Loopy waits for the period set by the Count In Quantization to start recording. When you tap, Loopy Pro animates the count in so that you can see where you are in the clock cycle. | ||
- | * **None**: recording starts immediately (// | ||
- | * **Master**: recording starts at the beginning of the next clock cycle (which is determined by the master length). | ||
- | * **Custom**: you can set a count-in time that is independent of the master length. | ||
- | * **Count Out Quantization** - options: None, Master, Custom. As with count-in quantization, | ||
- | * **None**: recording stops immediately. | ||
- | * **Master**: stop recording in sync with the master cycle length. | ||
- | * **Custom**: stop recording when it has reached the length you have set (or a multiple thereof). | ||
