Decay for overdubs (Loop Decay)

Aeros Loop Studio Feature Requests

And besides this issue with the volume jumps at the looping points I hear a very unwelcomed comeback of those ugly audio popping noises. And this happens only when loop decay is on.

Hi there,

please read post above

Ok, sorry for not having read the posts above. I guess i was just too frustrated after having been waiting for so long for this feature to finally work. It’s too bad.
Can I ask one more thing: Have you buried all further endeavors regarding loop decay or are you still considering to find a solution one day? If the answer is yes, please also work on the feature to set the loop decay rate via midi in realtime… Thanks

Hi there,
once again I would like to ask: After your last statement regarding the issues with proper loop decay functionality I got the feeling that you kind of gave up on this. If so please let us know.

It is my understanding that loop decay should be behaving as expected for Frippertronics although there’s a bug that causes some pops on every overdub and it should be fixed in the next release if I understood correctly one of Brennan’s posts on the subject. In other words, one thing is loop decay behavior and the other thing is any bugs with that behavior. I understand the behavior should be correct now, they just have to fix that bug that they have already admitted is there (which sounds like they will fix it).

Thanks for the answer, but it is not working in a frippertronics way at all. Volume jumps shouldn’t be happening.

Hey all,

Some news:
There are some improvements coming to loop decay in 5.2.1, although it is not what we would say is 100% it is better than 5.2.0.

We are still hopeful that we can get all the way there, but it will maybe not be included in 5.2.x

Thanks for your all of your passions for this product!

Hi Brennan. Pops still present in 5.2.1. Are there any plans to fix this in upcoming versions? Thanks. /C

A couple of more questions, please, if I may.

  1. What’s the MIDI CC to toggle Loop Decay ON and OFF? I cant’ find that in the manual.
  2. Can someone please explain the meaning of the “Loop Decay Rate”? It goes from 1000ms to 8000ms but I can’t really hear any difference. This time does not appear in the latest manual and the description provided in the device itself is totally unhelpful. What does this do?
    Thanks in advance.

Since you already posed this question in another thread, I’m merging it with that thread.

Please don’t duplicate posts. You may have better luck by reaching out to Support, support@singularsound.com

Thank you

You could have responded to my question rather being the wise policeman.

Hi, first post here. I’m considering buying an Aeros. Or I was until I dug into this thread.

I wonder if someone could summarise the current situation for me with the current firmware (which I understand is 5.2.1). The user manual is confusing - it seems to say “we have this great frippertronics feature” and then immediately follow that up with “but it doesn’t work”.

So - can I do smooth ambient loops with this, that fade out naturally if overdub is left on? Without any pops or ‘bloops’ or sudden volume transitions, and without having to avoid playing over the loop join?
