Product Overview

Lupus is a versatile loop slicer and re-arranger designed for real-time manipulation of audio loops. It allows users to play individual loops or all at once, offering extensive control over playback, including syncopation and reverse playback options. The instrument is particularly suited for electronic and experimental music, where dynamic loop arrangements are essential.

Details

With the ability to slice loops into sixteenth notes, Lupus provides a flexible environment for creative loop editing. Users can freely draw in the playback order of slices and utilize tools for quick forward or backward playback. Each pattern can incorporate per-step pitch modulation, enhancing the sonic variety of the loops. Formant control allows for significant timbral alterations, while a delay-based flam effect can impart a metallic quality to the sound.

Lupus supports MIDI note transposing, enabling real-time adjustments to loop patterns. The interface includes editing helpers and a low-pass/high-pass combifilter for further sound shaping. Users can drag and drop their own WAV loops, and the high-quality time-stretching algorithm ensures that the integrity of the audio is maintained during manipulation. Note that Lupus does not come with any pre-loaded loops, allowing for complete customization with user-generated content.
