[LAD] Loopino — New Release: v0.1.0

**Loopino — New Release: Expressive Control, Classic Filters, and Improved Standalone Support** This new Loopino release focuses on expressiveness, classic analogue-inspired sound shaping, and a more powerful standalone experience. With newly added Pitch Wheel support, Loopino now responds more like a real instrument, enabling expressive bends, subtle detuning, and dynamic performance gestures via MIDI. Sound design has been expanded with the addition of an Oberheim-style filter, complementing the existing Moog-style ladder filter. Together, they offer two distinct analogue flavours for sculpting everything from smooth pads to aggressive textures. Velocity-dependent dynamic controls allow envelopes, filters, and modulation depth to react naturally to playing intensity, bringing Loopino even closer to a performance-oriented sampler-synth hybrid. To enrich spatial depth and movement, this release introduces an integrated Chorus and Reverb, making it possible to create wide, lush, and immersive sounds directly inside Loopino—no external effects required. For standalone users, native ALSA audio and MIDI support has been added, improving stability, latency, and system integration on Linux. Alongside these additions, Loopino continues to offer its core feature set: drag-and-drop sample loading, on-the-fly recording, pitch tracking, a powerful Micro Loop Generator with selectable loop count and duration, non-destructive wave shaping (square & saw), LP/HP ladder filtering, phase modulators (sine, triangle, noise, Juno-style), vibrato, tremolo, root frequency control, preset handling, WAV export in the selected key, and up to 48 voices of polyphony. **Highlights of this Release** - MIDI Pitch Wheel support for expressive performance - New Oberheim-style filter - Velocity-based dynamic modulation controls - Integrated Chorus and Reverb effects - ALSA audio & MIDI support for the standalone version - Continued improvements to stability, workflow, and sound quality Loopino keeps evolving into a flexible, expressive instrument that bridges sampling, synthesis, and performance—designed for sound designers, experimental musicians, and anyone who enjoys turning raw audio into playable instruments. ## Availability - Linux: Standalone application, CLAP plugin, VST2 plugin - Windows: CLAP plugin, VST2 plugin Project Page: https://github.com/brummer10/Loopino Release Page: https://github.com/brummer10/Loopino/releases/tag/v0.1.0
