ULTRALOOP combines advanced loop layering, comping, effect processing and automation techniques to generate new grooves, riffs and song ideas. You can use ULTRALOOP with the included factory sample library or to remix your own samples, injecting new life into any existing loop library.<\/p>\n<p>ULTRALOOP is available now from the Twisted Tools Shop for $69. At the core of ULTRALOOP is an advanced loop layering engine and sequencer, capable of both layering and comping &#8211; a production technique that allows you to flip between layered tracks that are playing back simultaneously, by muting and un-muting slices of each layer. Up to eight tracks with loops of any BPM can be layered or comped together in real-time and can be further processed using the all-new Gestural FX engine.<\/p>\n<p>The Gestural FX engine automatically generates dynamic effect movements that ramp and modulate over time, using a suite of creative effects designed to produce endless fills, articulations and variations. To create additional loops and variations, ULTRALOOP features and endless supply of randomization functions, connected to a unique Preset Grid system for each main parameter group. A Preset Grid allows you to store, recall and automate settings by using a dynamic memory grid made up of 17 slots that can be played on-the-fly. The settings for the entire instrument, including all the parameter Preset Grids can be stored and recalled in one of eight Global Scenes, allowing you to create infinite loop variations.<\/p>\n<p>All the relevant instrument features can be played with live, without skipping a beat, by using a mouse, MIDI or OSC. ULTRALOOP comes bundled with various additional content, including an iPad *Lemur template by Antonio Blanca and a factory loop library by artists from Enig\u2019matik, Loopmasters and Sounds of Revolution.<\/p>\n<p>A series of Ultraloop Expansion Packs are available separately and feature loops and presets by artists such as Si Begg, Dusty Fungus and Chris Carter. *Reaktor Player not supported.<\/p>\n<p>**iPad and Liine Lemur iPad App sold separately Pricing and availability ULTRALOOP is available from the Twisted Tools Shop for $69 Additional Expansion Loop Packs can be purchased for $19\/each<\/p>\n<p>Further product information and press material http:\/\/twistedtools.com\/shop\/reaktor\/ultraloop<\/p>\n<p>Loop Expansions http:\/\/twistedtools.com\/shop\/loops Features \u2022 Loop Remixing Sampler.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Advanced layered sampler engine with intuitive interface.<br \/>\n\u2022 Visual loop compositing.<br \/>\n\u2022 Generative Gestural FX to create fills, articulations and variations.<br \/>\n\u2022 FX Sequencer<br \/>\n\u2022 Specialized track sequencer with mono and poly draw modes.<br \/>\n\u2022 Layered playback and editing of up to eight tracks simultaneously.<br \/>\n\u2022 Independent controls per layer, organized into parameter cells with sliders.<br \/>\n\u2022 Automatable Preset Grids per parameter group, with 17 memory slots each<br \/>\n\u2022 8 Global Scenes per snapshot<br \/>\n\u2022 Preset Grids and Scenes are playable via mouse, MIDI or OSC.<br \/>\n\u2022 Extensive randomization options.<br \/>\n\u2022 Time and pitch stretching to allow loops with different BPMs.<br \/>\n\u2022 Flexible multi-output routing per layer.<br \/>\n\u2022 Master Punch control<br \/>\n\u2022 Swing<br \/>\n\u2022 Control nearly every parameter with included iPad Lemur OSC Template by Antonio Blanca<br \/>\n\u2022 3+ banks of presets<br \/>\n\u2022 2224 Sound Variations<br \/>\n\u2022 Over 800mb of included factory sample content by from Enig&#8217;matik Records, Loopmasters and Sounds of Revolution. \u2022 Optional Expansion Packs by cutting edge artists such as Dusty Fungus, Chris Carter and Si Begg<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/twistedtools.com\/shop\/reaktor\/ultraloop\/\" target=\"_blank\">Check it out here!<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Sound designers for the Enig&#8217;matik bank include:<\/p>\n<p>Fine Cut Bodies<br \/>\nKilowatts<br \/>\nFlint Kids<br \/>\nApparition Sound Design<br \/>\nItsu<br \/>\nWhitebear<br \/>\nIon Driver<br \/>\nDusty Fungus<br \/>\nChris Komus<br \/>\nSun in Aquarius<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/kLXrpXqt0Lc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>W00t!
