LoopMix
AUv3 PLUGIN · OPTIMISED FOR AUM
LOOPMIX
Loop · Listen · Balance
A minimalist AUv3 looper plugin for iPad. Record your parts, loop them, and find your balance — solo or multi-track live performance.
FEATURES
Everything you need. Nothing you don’t.
Built for performers who need to check their mix on stage — without a sound engineer.
🎙
Real-time Recording
Up to 60 seconds of loop recording per instance at 48 kHz. Mono in, stereo out.
📊
Spectrum Analyser
Real-time FFT display from 80 Hz to 20 kHz. See exactly what’s in your mix.
🎚
Overdub
Layer new parts over a playing loop without changing its length. The Feedback control lets older layers fade away.
↩️
Undo / Redo
Remove the last overdub pass and restore the loop exactly as it was. Tap again to bring it back.
🎧
Live Monitoring
Your input stays audible over the playing loop — rehearse a part before you commit it.
🔁
CYCLE
One switch drives the whole looper: empty → Record, recording → Play, playing → Overdub.
🎚
VU Meter + LUFS
LED VU meter with LUFS momentary display. Know your levels at a glance.
🎛
Track Fader
Controls your track level at all times — recording, playback and standby.
🔗
Master / Slave Sync
Tap Master on one instance — all others become Slaves automatically.
🦶
MIDI Foot Pedal
Full hands-free control via MIDI CC — every action is remappable. Record, overdub, undo and more without touching the screen.
📐
Compact View
Resize the plugin window and the interface adapts automatically.
🎨
5 Colour Themes
Dark, Night, Forest, Amber, Slate. Tap the logo to cycle themes on stage.
SETUP IN AUM
Up and running in 4 steps.
One instance per audio channel. Each on its own physical input from your audio interface.
01
Insert as FX slot
In AUM, add LoopMix as an audio effect on an audio channel.
02
Assign a physical input
Route a microphone, guitar or instrument to that channel via your audio interface.
03
Repeat for each track
Add one instance per source you want to record — voice, guitar, keys, each on its own channel.
04
Set a Master instance
Tap Master on one instance — all other instances become Slaves automatically.
⚠️ Requires an AUv3 host app. LoopMix cannot run standalone. It is designed for AUM, where every feature is tested, multi-track sync included. Other AUv3 hosts that support Audio Unit music effects may also work. LoopMix does not load in GarageBand.
MIDI CC CONTROL
Hands-free with a foot pedal.
Connect a MIDI foot pedal and route it to all instances in AUM. Set every instance to the same MIDI channel. Every action is remappable — press Learn in Settings and tap your pedal. The defaults:
CC 80
Record — start / stop
CC 81
Play / Pause
CC 84
Overdub — start / stop
CC 82
Rewind
CC 83
Clear
CC 85
Undo / Redo
CYCLE has no CC by default — assign one to drive record, play and overdub from a single switch.
SYNC ROLES
Three modes. One workflow.
Each instance runs independently or as part of a synchronised group — your choice.
FREE
Free
Standalone instance. Responds to MIDI CC only. Default mode.
MASTER
Master
Broadcasts all commands to every Slave in the same host. Setting one instance as Master automatically switches all others to Slave. ~5–10 ms latency.
SLAVE
Slave
Mirrors the Master instantly. MIDI CC remains active — a foot pedal can still override at any time.
