RE: List of Looping Plugins (VST, RTAS, DirectX, etc)



Jeeesh....you're making me work now....see below.  I forgot that PhDs
often have their assistants that do their research for them. ;)   You
can get more details from the URLs.

1. SooperLooper - live looping sampler capable of immediate loop
recording, overdubbing, multiplying, reversing and more. It allows for
multiple simultaneous multi-channel loops limited only by your
computer's available memory. The feature-set and operation was inspired
by the impressive Gibson Echoplex Digital Pro (EDP).  No VST, but
supposedly in the future for XP. 

Supported on Linux and Mac OS X, and any other platforms that support
JACK

2. Mobius - a program for the real-time creation and manipulation of
audio loops. It has functionality based on the venerable Echoplex
Digital Pro with Loop IV software.  (VST). 

Supported on Windows XP, 2000, and NT

3. ELOTTRONIX XL - VST plugin which emulates the famous Robert Fripp's
effect called "Frippertronics": two Revox B-77 making a continuous loop 

Supported on PCs (not sure about MAC)

4. ELOTTRONIX - VST processor which emulates the famous Robert Fripp's
effect called "Frippertronics": Two Revox B-77 making a continuous loop
(2-8 seconds delay). 

Supported on PCs (not sure about MAC)

http://www.uv.es/%7Eruizcan/p_vst.htm

5. Lexicon PSP 42  - high-quality digital stereo delay and phrase
sampler plug-in (VST, DirectX RTAS for PC; VST and RTAS for Mac OS
classic and AudioUnit, VST and RTAS for Mac OSX) based on the legendary
Lexicon PCM 42 processor famous for its distinctive sound and unique
concept 

Suppored on PC, Mac OS classic, and Mac OSX

and the PSP 84)

6. Augustus Loop - an emulation of a tape-based delay effect, with some
extra features to facilitate its use as a looping device (not VST) 

Supported on....???

7. Loopy Llama v0.802 - It's a looper... Made to emulate the Jam Man or
DL-4 (VST plugin) http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/programs/LoopyLlama/

Suported on Windows and MAC OSX

8. Ambiloop - Windows software application that uses your sound card to
create smoothly overlapping loops of sound in real-time. Ambiloop
basically functions like a multi-track endless audio tape loop or
digital delay box with feedback. Simply set the desired loop time for a
track (or use manual mode to set loop times on-the-fly) and press the
record button. 

Supported on Windows

9. AngstroLooper: a rediculously long delay, it partly emulates an old
style tape loop system - but rather than trying to model something that
it isn't, AngstroLooper is designed to be easy to use tool on a laptop
while playing live (VST plugin) 

Suppored on Windows

10. Musolomo -  an "interactive sampler" released as an OSX AU (Windows
VST supposedly forthcoming).  It also has an Autoloop mode, which will
allow you to record and overdub sound-on-sound much like a hardware
Looper. 

Supported on Windows and MAC OS X

11. Coldcutter -  a VST 2.0 plugin. The Coldcutter is designed to chop a
loop into a number of slices or 'cuts' and rearranges them randomly in
real-time according to a number of parameters. The current version of
the Coldcutter was primarily designed for use with Ableton Live 1.5 but
works with Cubase. It has undergone preliminary testing on Cubase VST
5.0 R4 and Cubase SX 1.01 on Windows 2000. Any information about
compatibility problems with other hosts or versions of Windows
gratefully received. 

Supported on Windows

12. Loopitch (name subject to change: suggestions accepted) -  a
long-period high-feeback looping machine, akin to continuous tape loops
in "the old days" or digital Jam Man or Echoplex of today. Now all the
Fripp and Torn wannabes out there can have fun with a MIDI controllable
looper within a sequencing host! Loopitch currently works as a DXi2
instrument under SONAR 2 (my only test platform!), and will likely play
well with other DXi hosts. The VSTi version works identically via the
FXpansion adapter, but is otherwise mostly untested in VST hosts. 

Supported on Windows
