Overview

What this series covers.

SoundForMore builds a broad Loopy Pro reference course across the original app and v2-era workflows. The series begins with setup, recording, colours, mixer routing, AUv3 sources, importing loops, buses, session recording, canvas controls, gestures, scenes, and hardware. Later lessons dig into actions, clip targeting, drum patterns, AUM, MIDI recording, automation, polyphonic playback, and MIDI clips.
