Tempo Correction Actions (Halve/Double Tempo)
planned
ultracello
Description
This feature request proposes the implementation of assignable actions in Loopy Pro to correct tempo detection errors by halving (÷) or doubling (×) the tempo. This functionality would allow users to quickly adjust the tempo when the system misinterprets the intended BPM, enhancing workflow efficiency during live performances and recording sessions.
Proposed Solution
- Assignable Actions: Introduce two new actions, "Tempo ÷2" and "Tempo ×2", that can be assigned to buttons, widgets, or MIDI controllers.
- Immediate Tempo Adjustment: Enable these actions to instantly adjust the current project tempo without affecting the pitch or timing of existing loops.
- Integration with Existing Systems: Ensure compatibility with Loopy Pro's current action and MIDI control systems for seamless integration into user workflows.
Problem
- Incorrect Tempo Detection: Users often encounter situations where Loopy Pro detects the tempo at half or double the intended BPM, leading to synchronization issues.
- Manual Corrections: Currently, correcting such tempo discrepancies requires manual adjustments, which can be time-consuming and disruptive, especially during live performances.
- Workflow Interruptions: The lack of quick tempo correction actions hampers the fluidity of the creative process and can affect the overall performance quality.
Benefits
- Enhanced Workflow Efficiency: Quick access to tempo correction actions allows for immediate adjustments, maintaining the momentum of the creative process.
- Improved Live Performance: Performers can correct tempo detection errors on the fly without interrupting their set, ensuring a seamless experience.
- User Convenience: Reduces the need for manual tempo adjustments, allowing users to focus more on creativity and less on technical corrections.

Add tempo correction as an assignable clock action
David Ayala
I would like to assign tempo correction actions to widgets. Namely the ability to multiply/divide the tempo through a button press. Master Length kind of serves a similar function but I need to adjust tempo directly for my use case.

Set tempo action needs /2 and *2 options

The Set Tempo command could really use *2 and /2 options so that can get switch to halftime and double-time drum feels.

Coke Morris: Yes, but this is not doable with actions.

I need an action to re-edit the

BPM and / or the MAX
BPM value individually.Spiro Dimitriakis
This function is necessary. Can this be used live without glitches occurring?

My loop is 130.5 but LP says it's 65.25 which is just wrong.

I need actions for multiply / divide the global tempo (e.g. x2.0, x1.5, x1.25, /3.0, /2.75...)
Josh Porter
This is exactly what I'm missing.
