Introducing Loupe 1.5 Beta

I've added some enhancements and fixed some bugs.



  • Most notably, there is now a key/slice copy and paste function. If you want to start with a key/slice, copy it to a new key and modify it, here's what you do: press the key (middle C for example) that contains the settings you want to copy, click the copy button, then press the destination key (C sharp for example) and click the paste button. Then you can make the new copy as subtly or vastly different as you please. 
  • I've nailed down a crash problem that some of you may have been encountering when playing different slices very quickly from a MIDI keyboard (or the computer keyboard for that matter).
  • All the parameter IDs have been sorted and compressed to aid VST automation in a host.

The 1.5 beta can be downloaded here. The archive password you received previously will work with this new version. 1.5 should work perfectly but I'm calling it a beta until more people than me have tested it!

  1. Great new feature! Loupe has become one of my most used instruments over the past few weeks.

    For a future update, is there anyway to keep the key/slice info associated with a specific sample? I'd love to load up one instance of the device and just use the sample selector to switch the samples and associated key slices.

  3. You can unlock the archive with the same passcode that unlocks version 1. If you haven't purchased version 1, click here to buy a copy.

  4. Crispy, I have a version with sample select 90% working... just have to finesse some event ordering.

  6. So you did get a sample select version working? Is it coming along pretty good?

  7. You know how they say the last 20% of the job takes 80% of the effort? Turns out I have to do a radical overhaul to make sample select work properly. But the resulting instrument will be awesome, with a slightly different character. Stay tuned!

  8. At the risk of Loupe competing with Mirage, how about a forward+backwards direction mode?
