Tape Looper 1.3.3

@koostix koostix released this 23 Sep 18:19

A bigger, clearer console. The whole console now draws at full size instead of shrinking to fit, so labels and controls are noticeably larger.

STOP, PLAY, RECORD and INSERT are bigger and show their keys (Space, R, I). During count-off, the tape lane shows a large beat countdown and the track you're about to record. The recording lane reads ● REC, so recording and armed look different.

The session name, NEW, SAVE and SESSIONS moved to the top bar. Unnamed strips show + NAME (click to name). CLICK is one row, and MIX TO DISK shows the take's length while it records. If macOS blocks the microphone, a banner says so and opens Privacy settings.

No recording changes. Sessions from 1.3.2 open as before.

The Mac app is the .dmg. GitHub's "Source code" zip is this download page, not the application.

LOOP / TAPE + locate. Each strip is a cycle (LOOP) or a linear reel (TAPE) so a vocal can walk the song instead of stacking every 4 bars. TAPE lives on disk in the session folder.

Click a bar on the song ribbon to park the head, or SET 1–4 to store a cue. RECORD from a parked head punches the take there. Count-off does not write before the mark.

INSERT on TAPE is one master cycle from the song head. LOOP count-off still lands on the downbeat.

Guitar tuner on INPUT. Tap TUNE on the input strip. It reads the clean DI, before the amp.

Chromatic note, octave, cents bar, and Hz. Off is zero extra CPU. NAM and mix-to-disk are unchanged. Amp captures are free at TONE3000.

ERASE ALL now asks for a second press. Settings and Sessions overlay the console instead of squeezing the transport.
