Now compatible with Ableton Link, a new technology that synchronises beat, phase and tempo between Ableton Live and compatible apps over WiFi, or between apps on the same device. http://ableton.com/link

Compatible with the Audiobus app: Now you can receive live audio directly from other Audiobus-compatible apps!

While other music creation apps tend to be either powerful but difficult to learn, or easy to use but limited in features, Loopy doesnt compromise. Loopy offers a sleek, expressive, instantly understandable interface that beginners can start using effectively straight away. Its fun, right from the start.

More advanced users, however, will not be disappointed by Loopys rich feature set, with extra features many other loopers just dont have. Plus, a sophisticated interactive tutorial system lets users discover Loopys more advanced features at their own pace.
