[LAA] Loopino v0.5.0 released

Loopino — New Release: Unified Time, Multi-Engine Character & Advanced Stretching This new Loopino release marks a major step forward in timing accuracy, tonal consistency, and sampler character. By integrating *librubberband* (standing on the shoulders of giants), Loopino now features *unison note lengths across the entire keyboard range* — meaning every pitch now preserves its rhythmic identity while being played musically across the full scale. In practice, this means: your micro-loops, slices and textures no longer shrink or stretch unpredictably when played higher or lower — they stay locked in musical time. Alongside this, Loopino now introduces *multiple sampler engine simulations*. Each engine emulates different playback behaviours, interpolation styles and internal timing characteristics inspired by classic and modern samplers. This allows you to choose not only /what/ you play, but /how/ it behaves — from tight, modern precision to lo-fi, characterful vintage motion. These additions build on Loopino’s already powerful creative toolkit: drag-and-drop sampling, on-the-fly recording, pitch tracking, micro-loop generation, non-destructive wave shaping, multiple analogue-inspired filters (Moog, Oberheim, Wasp, TB-303), modulators, vibrato, tremolo, chorus & reverb, preset handling, WAV export in key, up to 48-voice polyphony, and a highly flexible standalone environment with ALSA support and command-line configuration. New in this Release * High-quality time-stretching powered by *librubberband* * *Unison note lengths across the full keyboard range* * *Multiple sampler engine simulations* for different playback characters * Continued performance, stability & workflow refinements Loopino is no longer just a sampler — it is a time-aware, character-selectable, performance-ready instrument that blends sampling, synthesis, and musical timing into one creative engine.
