FUN Sampler v1.2.0

Live Loop Editing. DAW Automation. More Creative Freedom.

FUNtasia Audio is pleased to announce FUN Sampler v1.2.0, a free VST3 sampler instrument for Windows.

This update introduces real-time loop editing, automatable loop markers, and flexible loop playback entry options, giving you more control over how your samples evolve during performance.

What's New in v1.2.0

🔄 Real-Time Loop Editing

  • Adjust loop START and END markers while notes are playing.
  • Loop region changes can affect currently playing voices.
  • Smooth transitions help reduce unwanted clicks when playback needs to move into a new loop region.
  • Supports forward and reverse loop playback.

🎛️ DAW Loop Automation

  • Automate LOOP START (%) and LOOP END (%) independently.
  • Record loop marker movements directly in your DAW.
  • Play back automation to dynamically change the loop region.
  • Loop markers follow automation changes in the plugin interface.

🎹 New Loop Entry Options

Choose how loop playback begins when a MIDI note is triggered:

  • FILE START — Begin playback from the start of the audio file, then enter the loop region.
  • LOOP START — Begin playback directly from the loop start marker.

This is especially useful when working with longer audio samples or creating rhythmic and evolving loops.
