EasyLoop

About EasyLoop Android App

With this loop station you can improvise over your audio recording in a simple manner. Through the headset connector of your Android device you can connect it with your music equipment and grind it in as an effects device. EasyLoop is therefore suitable for the amateur musician jamming to your own sequence. Or you can experiment with it in the rehearsal room and set the pace for the drummer...
To try out, during a spontaneous session or as a creative game idea for your children EasyLoop can also use the built-in microphone and speakers without any other equipment.
EasyLoop consists of the two units, mixer and tape recorder. With the mixer the signal paths are connected and set up the level. The single-channel tape recorder can record or play back with a single click. The tape recorder remains active, even if the application lost focus.

- Increase audio buffer: The tape recorder works with the smallest possible buffer of your device – to keep latency low. When playback should stutter on your device, try it with a larger buffer.
Possible setups:
To integrate the device into your existing equipment, a headset adapter is required, such as Lindy 35523 (Attention, there are two different pin assignments; usually it's mass at three and Aux Mic at four).
A) If you only have a one channel amplifier, EasyLoop can be switched between microphone and amplifier. Live signal and tape playback go together to the amplifier. Since the live signal comes to Android -related delayed by the buffer, you have to live here with the latency of the live signal.
B) The microphone signal is connected to the amp and the EasyLoop is connected via the effect out of the amp. The EasyLoop output is connected with the second channel of the amp. In EasyLoop the live signal should be muted. With this setup you have no latency of the live signal.
