Live loops and stems
Captured material and prepared clips share one performance environment without reducing the show to playback.
Rig Walkthrough
Dub FX
Dub FX gives a long-form demonstration of a touring Loopy Pro rig built around live loops, prepared material, plugins, routing, set organisation, and hands-on control.
Quick Glance
The setup at a glance
Touring performance rig
A controller-driven Loopy Pro system combining live looping, prepared stems, plugins, detailed routing, and a complete touring set.
Performance model
Live looping and prepared material remain inside one playable environment, with room to mix and reshape the show in real time.
Core system
Loopy Pro, external MIDI control, hosted plugins, custom routing, stems, buses, and an interface designed around a touring set.
Why watch
The long-form demonstration shows how the whole system behaves together, not just an isolated feature or finished performance.
From the Musician
Dub FX demonstrates his touring Loopy Pro setup
A touring rig in motion
Dub FX’s long-form demonstration shows a mature Loopy Pro performance system doing the job it was built for: carrying a complex solo live show without hiding the decisions behind it. He moves through live looping, prepared stems, effects, routing, controller assignments, and transitions while explaining how the pieces fit together.
The full walkthrough reveals practical details that are easy to miss in a short performance clip.
Prepared material without losing live control
The setup combines parts prepared before the show with material captured and manipulated on stage. Loopy Pro becomes the centre of the system: clips, live inputs, plugins, buses, and MIDI control remain visible and reachable rather than disappearing into a fixed backing track.
That balance is useful for performers building larger sets. Preparation provides structure and consistency, while the workspace still leaves room to loop, mix, process, and respond in the moment.
One workspace, many performance jobs
The walkthrough also shows why custom workspaces matter once a rig reaches touring scale. Controls can be sized and grouped around the actions that actually happen on stage. External controllers handle tactile tasks, while the screen communicates state and exposes deeper changes when needed.
Set organisation, routing, effect chains, and transitions are parts of the instrument rather than separate technical chores. Watching them operate together is the value of this demonstration: it shows not only what the rig contains, but how a performer thinks through it.
What the walkthrough covers
A close look at a controller-driven touring system that combines live performance with carefully prepared material.
Built for hands-on use
MIDI controllers and a custom touchscreen workspace divide immediate actions from deeper visual control.
Plugins, routing, and buses
Processing and signal flow are integrated into the project so the complete live mix remains manageable.
A system for a complete show
Organisation and transitions help a substantial set move forward while preserving room for live decisions.
