      Bravo, this is a great tool that I feel like I have only just brushed the surface.
      Great for creating ideas/writers block or adding to a project that you are already working on.
      The possibilities are endless!
      Will definitely be checking out some of your other tools

    CHANGE LOG:

    V1.1.0 – Released 6th November 2023

    New features
    Legato – When you enable Legato, the rhythm plays continuously, eliminating any gaps.

    Monophonic Track Mode – Using the Monophonic controls, each track can be set to Monophonic mode. When enabled, tracks marked as Monophonic will not overlap each other.

    Mappable Generate Button – The Generate button is now mappable to a key or to MIDI, so you can use it with Live’s Key Map or Midi Map functions.

    Bug fixes and improvements

    Rotate Pattern – When rotating the pattern, long clips would previously not wrap around to the beginning of the main loop if rotated partly outside the set loop area.

    Loop Flip by XY Studio Tools

    Loop Flip is a Max for Live device designed for loop manipulation in Ableton Live’s arrangement view. It allows you to load up to 64 loops in the Session View, and then randomise various parameters to generate new, unique grooves directly on the Arrangement View’s timeline.

    You can use audio as well as midi loops of any length. The device randomly selects clips, alters start markers, and employs rhythmic algorithms. The result is a blend of your original loops into new musical patterns.

    HOW LOOP FLIP WORKS

    When adding the Loop Flip Device to a Live set, it recognises any loops that are in the top 8 clip slots in the session view, for up to 8 tracks. Loop Flip will add the first 8 (or less) tracks that contain any clips in the top most 8 clip slots.

    The device allows you to generate new grooves from a pool of loops by randomly selecting segments of the loops and arranging them into rhythmic patterns in the Arrangement View. This offers a quick workflow for discovering ideas that seamlessly integrate with Live’s environment, including the use of effects and further editing.

    Additional Features

    • Rhythm Modifications
    • Rotate the rhythm
    • Add swing to the actual placement of the loops
    • Halftime setting for changing how the pattern relates to the global tempo
    • Supports Audio and Midi loops

    Basic Workflow

    • Preparing loops

    When adding the Loop Flip Device to a Live set, it recognises any loops that are in the top 8 clip slots in the session view, for up to 8 tracks. Loop Flip will add the first 8 (or less) tracks that contain any clips in the top most 8 clip slots.

    • Generating grooves

    To generate a new groove, set the loop start in Live’s arrangement view to where you want the groove to be created and click “Generate”. This will generate a randomly created groove, based on a selection of your included loops. If you have many loops, not all will be used each time you generate a groove, instead a random selection of loops, starting points and rhythmic pattern will be used.

    • Settings

    Before or after you generate a new groove, you can change settings for the groove.

    The settings include length of the pattern, pattern resolution, pages of the pattern (repeats), swing and more.
