new Augustus Loop beta

Post by os » Wed Jul 14, 2004 10:14 pm

The first beta of the next version of Augustus Loop is available here:

http://www.expert-sleepers.co.uk/downlo ... _beta1.tgz

This contains 3 new features which might be of some interest to people here:

1) Host tempo sync.

It is now possible to specify the loop length in terms of the host application's tempo and a number of beats/bars etc.

2) Audio-triggered record start

So you can have the loop record triggered by your playing, rather than trying to hit the record button and start playing at the same time.

3) MIDI clock out

The plug-in is capable of generating MIDI clock messages. This is something of an experimental feature, but it does mean you can for example hook the MIDI out up to Live and have Live start playback in sync with your loop the instant you finish recording the first pass.


I'd be enormously grateful for your feedback, either by direct mail or via the forum:

1.1.0 beta 2 is here:

http://www.expert-sleepers.co.uk/downlo ... _beta2.tgz

Mostly bug fixes and under-the-hood stuff - no actual features added.

cheers,
os.
