Loopcloud 2.0 allows you to audition millions of sounds from Loopmasters iconic libraries without having to leave the comfort of your DAW!
Browse the store for new content or narrow down your search to just your content, find the sound you want within seconds. You’re able to filter your search results to show only certain styles and furthermore, display only samples that match the key of your track, or “auto-match” samples that aren’t in key when you drop them into your project.
The real drawcard for me personally is the fact that you have the ability to process the samples, to hear what they would sound like with EQs, dynamics processors or any other effect that your heart desires, all before making the purchase! Now you can be 100% sure that the sound will work before spending your cash.
Once you have purchased content, it’s stored on the cloud, this is great for keeping your hard-drives free of clutter and gives you the ability to access your library wherever you are in the world.
The future of music – are our heads in the clouds?
There most certainly has been a push toward cloud-based sample libraries and music production in general with companies like Native Instruments offering a similar platform, while websites like Splice.com allow you to collaborate with other producers and share sounds/remix content via a cloud-based system.
Loopcloud 2.0 comes in the form of a plugin, that means you hear your library and potential new loops and samples in the context of your track, you also can use pre-made patterns to trigger one-shots for a much more accurate auditioning experience. Loopcloud is not a subscription service, it works using a point system, allowing you to only pay for content that you’re actually using.
On top of all of these cool features, Loopmasters is giving away 150 free samples a month on Loopcloud 2.0, download and try it out for free today!
