Appreciate that!

Thanks for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!)

Thanks! ☺️

Thanks, Piers 🙏

Thanks for listening 😌

Спасибо!

Thanks! Yes, that's a good topic! For RU-vid and for lessons inside the course. I will keep that in mind, thank you

Thanks! That's great!) Feel free to ask any questions :)

OK @@max_yar_guitar, so I'm askin, can it do verse chorus with 'automatic end of phrase switchover' like a Boss RC500 or a Pigtronix Infinity?

By the way, I have the line 6 pod go, you think I could use that with Loopy Pro?

100% yes. The way you set it up is just the same as for my HX Stomp 4:30 - how to connect 9:38 - a little picture :) And you could use footswitches on Pod Go to send commands in Loopy Pro. The next video is on that topic

@@max_yar_guitarthanks for your reaction! Awesome. Looking forward to that video. Connecting them is no problem but then the right settings in the software/Loopy Pro is the daunting part :)

Have fun!

Thanks! Yes, you can use any 3rd party virtual instruments you'll find in the App Store. Including synths, keys, drums etc. You can use on screen keyboard or hook up some midi controller / keyboard / pads. Here is an example ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wMKAONa-xYA.html

Many thanks! Yes, I am gonna make tutorials on simple tamplates :) Which demo of my videos do you like best? I could start with some of those :)

@@max_yar_guitar Har to say which one is best Max as I find them all very inspiring and useful....You have a great talent for making the videos both musical and educational....I can see what you are doing on the "outside" with your guitar and phone or iPad and Loopy Pro but what confuses me is how you set up your loops to interact so immediately and transparently to your gestures.....yes the settings inside loopy are overwhelming so any way that you can reveal or show how the choice of settings makes your music making possible would be very helpful.....

Yeah, I get it! Will do some lesson on that :)

Wow, that's amazing. Thanks!

Unfortunately, the H5 distorts the sound when connected in audio interface mode, so it is not suitable for the live-looping

Thanks! If it might be connected as an audio interface to an iOS device (iPhone/iPad), then yes

Hi! Yes, I use the octave effect by Eventide - QVOX plugin. I am preparing video about that. And you can find octave effect in apps like ToneStock PRO. Here you'll find the demo and my template for that ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wMKAONa-xYA.html

I rarely use MS capsule. Most of the time I use XY mics. No issues with both of them. No, don't use any noise-removing software :) But recently I've bought Brusfri and it works great. I think I should try it on zoom mics)

Hey! Are you sure that the interface was used for the audio recordings? You can hear them in the headphones hooked up to the interface? If so, then in the System Settings (top right corner) you have Multiroute Audio OFF. Then go to the metronome settings (top right corner; tap on the current tempo or ---) > gears icon > Metronome > Choose the right output channels (it depends on your interface)

Hi, thanks! It's just a stock Loopy Pro reverb plugins + stock EQ :)

Hey! I have no experience with that controller, but as far as I see what it is, yes, you could! This tutorial should help ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-USXsHcefh_Q.html

Hi! So, you want 2 audio inputs for guitar and 2 audio inputs (because it's stereo) for a keyboard. In this case, you need 4 input audio interface. However, you can connect MIDI keyboard over the MIDI port and use virtual instrument to generate the sound. But you need an audio interface that has MIDI port :) I hope my explonation is not overcomplicated 😅

Hi! 1 Try to find a quiet place to record 2 Try to place a phone 10-15 cm from your guitar. Place it in front of the 12-14 fret. But it's not a rule, it's just a great position to start. You could experiment here 3 Open the mixer > Input channel > Mic icon > Microphone selection. To my ears, the Bottom mic is the best, but you can try each of them 4 Currently I test the Brusfri plugin for reducing the noise. It seems like it works pretty well! Maybe I should do the proper video about that 😌

Yes you can, as far as you use the same Apple ID. You don't need to pay twice for iPad/iPhone version

@@max_yar_guitar awesome thanks so much!

Thanks! Normal Dunlop thumbpick

Thank you!

It seems like your iRig is not working and you should try another interface

Hey! What MPK version do you have? Akai MPK Mini Play?

Привет! Да, все верно Не получится одновременно. Рекомендую вот такой адаптер (на 4:54), где и usb-a, и lightning PS Спасибо! :))

@@max_yar_guitar Спасибо за ответ!

Рад помочь )

I use Lumix G7 and 2 lenses: 1) 25mm 1.7 2) 12-60mm

@@max_yar_guitar thank you! do you have a video tutorial on how to connect your camera to the whole set up for live streaming or recording?

sorry, I don't have one

Absolutely! You can use Loopy Pro with an electric guitar, both with and without an amp. If you prefer to play without an amp, you can connect your guitar directly to your device using a suitable audio interface This setup allows you to use some amp sim app inside Loopy Pro (Tonestack Pro, BYOD, Bias, Amplitube, ...) If you're using an amp, you can mic the amp and connect the microphone to your audio interface, or use a line output from the amp if it has one. This way, you can capture the sound of your guitar through the amp, incorporating the amp’s tonal characteristics into your loops and recordings in Loopy Pro I am thinking about making

I suppose you should group the loops. And then change the setting of the group to "OR" (like playing Loop A or Loop B, not the same time). Also, you may want a custom button for that action. Sorry, I don't have a dedicated video on that here, but I have lessons on that topics in the course - loopymax.gofingerstyle.com/quickstart

I see only two options 1. Using a guitar with a pickup (connect with audio interface) 2. Moving to another neighbourhood 😅

​@@max_yar_guitar😂😂😂😂😂

I tried using the ​guitar with pickup, but the iPhone mic still records other sounds in the room, how can I make Loopy Pro catch the sound coming from my guitar pickup and audio interface only @max_yar_guitar please help me

There is no auto-quantisation for the audio. But it's gonna be MIDI looping soon. I assume you will be able to quantise MIDI notes. BTW, you can do it already using 3rd party plugins inside Loopy Pro (like Digistix2 or Koala Sampler)

@@max_yar_guitar Ah great. I just bought Loopy Pro after watching your videos, so thank you!

Yes, you can do both! Demo of the "serial mode" - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mvrzJ6Tm5g4.html Demo of the loops with different length - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZHNhPKeQV1g.html I've made a lessons for both in my course here - loopymax.gofingerstyle.com/

As far as I know, you can't use Garage Band sounds. But 1 You could use Loopy Pro as a plugin inside Garage Band 2 You could download any midi instruments or plugins from App Store. List of my recommendations www.loopymax.com/plugins

Yes, Loopy Pro detects audio card automatically, if it's working with the iPhone

BT headphones is bad idea because of latency

Hey! I am not sure about Tascam, but I think it doesn't work as an audio interface and as a recorder simultaneously. Zoom doesn't. But it's because Loopy Pro got a built-in recorder, so every signal could be saved individually. So, I connect it as a USB audio interface and that's it :)

Ok so I have a Scarlett. So if I hook up the iPad or iPhone , loopy pro gets the input signal plus sends the output for monitoring?

?

@@judyshatkin Yes, absolutely. It works the same way it works for PC / Mac. Except for the powering. Sometimes audio-interface needs extra power (from the power-adapter or usb power-hub or camera kit adapter with extra power input). Rewatch 8:22

@@max_yar_guitar I used the charger cable to plug from phone to Scarlett-should this work? I couldn’t figure out how to get the sound on the loopy pro. Maybe I need the other cable lightning to usb

Android - no. Electric guitar - yes :)

Heeey! I have another educational guitar channel. But it's in Russian )) However, you could start with this video - it has English subtitles ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--S2EROKkk7g.html

Doesn't Bluetooth latency bother you while you playing?

No, latency issues

Привет! Спасибо большое! Честно говоря, просто в микрофон без наушников я даже не пытался играть. Могу порекомендовать попробовать сделать так: в микшере нажать на микрофон, там внизу будет Echo Cancellation. Включить эту опцию и нажать Calibrate тоже

На данный момент я не пишу аранжировки на заказ :)

I might buy the older apple device. Here is my demo with iPhone 5s: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UYwUeoVCCsU.html Just be sure that it support iOS 12 or newer

There is no difference to my ears )

@@max_yar_guitar Thank you - I have tried to load wav files into launchpad for ios via blocswave but the sound quality is not good (compressed?) I thought the lauchpad for ios would allow me to use my scenes in an interactive way while performing, Sound quality and getting sound in are the big issues. So after your inspiring video ----- I am going to get Loopy pro and use my H2n Zoom mic with camera connector as you suggest. Essentially, I am looking for a portable version of what I can produce in Ableton and perform using launchpad . It needs to be portable and rechargeable (no computer) It looks like Loopy Pro can handle this (saw tasty pixel video) and allow live looping to augment this process? I have had big problems with Apple - getting audio into my ipad from my PC . ive ordered the camera connector and will trial the Loopy pro and then buy it. Ps will Loopy HD still work or is it not worth bothering with anymore. Seems very primitive now. DO you use pre- recorded loops as well or is everything you do - all done live ? Thanks very much for your excellent videos

Sorry, can't say anything about the sound quality. I don't know the specifics of your workflow, but maybe this man could inspire you if we are talking about Ableton www.youtube.com/@andrewtasselmyer2436 No, I don't use any pre-recorded loops. Too lazy for this 😄 All done live I don't think you need Loopy HD since there is a Loopy Pro Thanks! ✨

@@max_yar_guitar Thank you - very helpful. Im thinking of using simple wave files like a drum brush beat (simple) and the n looping on top of that . Although I am impressed with the range of percussive sounds u can produce . so maybe not needed - cheers

No, iOS only

Кстати, это уже есть в курсе на русском - gofingerstyle.com/loopy

Спасибо! Дякую! :))

If you use an acoustic guitar, you need a pickup system, that is not so sensible to outer sound. Under saddle piezo pickup (this is like an industry standard) or magnetic pickup. Or you could use an internal microphone (like in the Maton guitars or K&K trinity system or Fishman rare blend earth), but you should cover it with the feedback buster So, it's a basic setup if you'd like to play on stage anyway. To avoid feedback problems. Even if you don't use looper :)
