Loopy Pro as a pedalboard

Loopy Pro is built for loopers, but you're using it as a pedalboard. This section rewires how you think about it — mixer, signal chain, layout — so everything makes sense and you're not just guessing.

Your core tone

Before any effects, you need a base sound you actually like. You'll build it, save it as presets, and be able to switch between completely different sounds instantly. One preset system works across every plugin on your board.

Building a modular effects chain

Each effect lives in its own slot, independent from everything else. You can swap out your delay, change your reverb, or add a new plugin without touching the rest of your chain. The board grows with you without breaking what you already built.

Total control over your sound

Your floor controller does exactly what you need it to do and nothing more. Custom on-screen knobs, one button that sets up your whole sound for the next song, single tap and hold doing two independent things from the same pedal.

Live looping basics

A few lessons on how to integrate a looper into your pedalboard setup. Nothing complicated — record, play, stop, clear, all from one pedal. Enough to start jamming with your new tones right away.

Before you walk on stage

Mute, tuner, safety button, limiter on the master channel. One tap that prepares your whole rig before you go on. The small things that make the difference between a setup that holds up live and one that doesn't.

Multiple rigs in one project

You can have as many independent pedalboards as you want inside one project and switch between them instantly. Clean guitar, bass octave, ambient swells — each with its own full chain of plugins and settings. And because of the way Loopy Pro handles idle mode, the chains you're not using consume almost no CPU, so adding more doesn't cost you anything.

Send buses and tails

A bus channel lets you design your reverb or delay tail as its own separate thing, independent from your dry sound. You can shape it, saturate it, EQ it, without touching your guitar signal at all. One bus serves your guitar, your loops, and anything else you're running, so you build it once and it works everywhere.

Advanced MIDI pedal control

One pedal can do a lot more than toggle an effect on and off. You can make sounds drift in gradually over several bars instead of snapping on. You can hold a pedal to temporarily add something and have it disappear cleanly when you release. You can have single tap and hold do two completely independent things. All of this from the same floor controller you already have. 

Cue mix and in-ears

Clean mix to the house, click track in your ears. You hear what you need to stay in time, the audience hears only the music.

Backing tracks

You can run backing tracks directly inside Loopy Pro alongside your live rig, with full volume control, EQ, and mixer integration. At home or on stage.

MIDI profiles

Different songs need different pedal assignments. Profiles let you switch the entire function of your floor controller in one tap, so the same four buttons do something completely different for the next song. You can also keep some buttons always stable and only change the ones that need to change.
