    Loopino =E2=80=94 New Release: Unified Time, Multi-Engine Character &
    Advanced Stretching

This new Loopino release marks a major step forward in timing accuracy,=20
tonal consistency, and sampler character. By integrating *librubberband*=
=20
(standing on the shoulders of giants), Loopino now features *unison note=
=20
lengths across the entire keyboard range* =E2=80=94 meaning every pitch no=
w=20
preserves its rhythmic identity while being played musically across the=20
full scale.

In practice, this means:
your micro-loops, slices and textures no longer shrink or stretch=20
unpredictably when played higher or lower =E2=80=94 they stay locked in mu=
sical=20
time.

Alongside this, Loopino now introduces *multiple sampler engine=20
simulations*. Each engine emulates different playback behaviours,=20
interpolation styles and internal timing characteristics inspired by=20
classic and modern samplers. This allows you to choose not only /what/=20
you play, but /how/ it behaves =E2=80=94 from tight, modern precision to l=
o-fi,=20
characterful vintage motion.

These additions build on Loopino=E2=80=99s already powerful creative toolk=
it:
drag-and-drop sampling, on-the-fly recording, pitch tracking, micro-loop=
=20
generation, non-destructive wave shaping, multiple analogue-inspired=20
filters (Moog, Oberheim, Wasp, TB-303), modulators, vibrato, tremolo,=20
chorus & reverb, preset handling, WAV export in key, up to 48-voice=20
polyphony, and a highly flexible standalone environment with ALSA=20
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 character=
s

  *

    Continued performance, stability & workflow refinements

Loopino is no longer just a sampler =E2=80=94 it is a time-aware,=20
character-selectable, performance-ready instrument that blends sampling,=
=20
synthesis, and musical timing into one creative engine.
