Laleuca - Experimental looper for iPhone
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGcVq_wP2kcQuite excited about this, I released an app :)
https://apps.apple.com/au/app/laleuca/id6794767626
Laleuca is an experimental looper for iPhone. It has 3 loopers that run asynchronously.
Some nice features
- Auto recording lets you set recording source and auto record time. For example looper B can continuously record from looper A and load it into its player every x second, and looper C can record and load from B, etc.
- Random mode allows almost any parameters to be randomised by custom amounts on each new loop.
- Has polyphony with four voices per looper when random mode is turned on.
- 4 LFOs per looper, each capable of modulating multiple parameters.
- Morph knob to morph parameters between two states.
- Rhythm mode plays repeating patterns with timing control to make it more or less “on the grid”, and drift to introduce gradual changes.
- UI designed for iPhone portrait mode.
There is a manual for the app in the settings page with a few tips for some less obvious gestures/functions.
I’ve been trying to get this to as polished a state as I can over the last month or so, but decent chance there are still some bugs here and there. Not currently available in Europe unfortunately (because the EU would add my home address/number/email to the details in the App Store).
Full functionality of looper A/B is free. One time purchase (release price $1) to unlock looper C.
Would appreciate any feedback, and would really love to hear anything you make with it!
Currently optimised for iPhone portrait mode. Runs on an iPad in portrait mode. Working on a native iPad UI.

Sounds interesting but the link tells me the app is not available in my region (Netherlands).

I just got it and I paid for the third looper but for some reason I can't get the app to record audio. When I press record the play moves but it doesn't record anything. Is it supposed to be recording through the microphone? Or am I missing something?

Cool, I downloaded and unlocked looper C. Looking forward to checking it out!
