2020 04 19 15x35 10

Download the application of the corresponding OS from the button below.

2020 04 19 15x37 57

I've been using it since Verion 5 was released, but it's quite usable.

You can search by instrument, genre, key, and BPM, so work efficiency is exploding.

You can do a lot of things for free.

And the sooner you register, the better. (You can get up to 5 free samples every day)

If you already have a LoopMasters account, you can use it immediately by downloading and installing the app.

If you do not have an account, please refer to the procedure for creating an account.

How to use Loopcloud 5

The Loopcloud 5 app works standalone.

It works with your DAW like a Bridge. (Close to Rewire)

Everything explained here can be done with the free version.

Advance preparation

Launch Loopcloud 5.

2019 08 13 22x32 45

Start your DAW and start Loopcloud from VST.

2019 08 13 22x33 06

With this, it will cooperate internally without doing anything special.

How to find and limit free samples you can get every day on Loopcloud

2019-08-15 Addendum

Now that I know how to get the free sample that I get every day and the restrictions, I will explain it.

According to official information, you can choose from over 25,000 sounds.

Even if it is free, there are a lot of samples that can be used immediately, not suitable samples.

Even free users every dayFree up to 5You can get a sample with.

How to find a free sample

Enter "free" in the search window.

The "Free" tag will appear in "ADDITIONAL" as shown below, so click it.

2019 08 15 11x56 59

If this is left as it is, a considerable number will appear in the search results, so it is good to narrow down by the genre or instrument you want. (Searching alone takes a considerable amount of time)

Even if you focus on DubStep260There was also a free sample (increased to 2020 on 05/11/631).

2019 08 15 12x45 58

When you find the sample you want, click "Free" on the right side and it will become a cloud mark and will be added to your account.

 

Find and load a Loop in Loopcloud

First, select "BASS" from "INSTRUMENT" and then select "DubStep" from "GENRES".

Now DubStep's Bass will appear in the search results, select it and preview it.

Since it is linked with VST, BPM will match without permission.

I took a video so far.

Edit and apply effects to Loop on Loopcloud

This is really amazing.You can even cut and paste reverse on this screen.

Most things can be done with just presets.Please watch the video for the time being. (It's a little long)

 

You can create as many patterns as you like from one loop.

Then drag and drop it to your DAW.

How to use your own sample library

Click "Add Samples ..." at the top right of the screen.

2019 08 13 23x51 53

Since the browser starts and you can specify the folder, specify the folder where your sample library is saved.

2019 08 13 23x56 52

Amazingly, it also analyzes your library well.

It takes a lot of time, so be careful if you have a large number of files. (It is good to do it before going to bed)

2019 08 14 00x03 47

 

Loopcloud Drum and Loopcloud Play

2019 08 14 11x22 57

It will be recognized as a normal plug-in (VSTi).

2019 08 14 11x24 08

2019 08 14 11x23 30

There is also a tutorial video.

Loopcloud Drum

Loopcloud has been upgraded to 5.1 and I wrote a separate article about Loopcloud Drum.

Loopcloud Drum is a drum sampler with samples assigned to the usual 16 pads.

The place that is very easy to understand and incorporates the trendy sounds is the stone.

The features are as follows.

Features
・ Easy-to-understand interface
・ 10 DrumKit (All 10 kits are available in the free version)
・ Preset only (You cannot import your own sample)
・ 16 pads
・ Built-in 32Step sequencer (with Roll function)
・ Built-in mixer
・ All 16 can be individually choked and sent.
・ Swing installed

The difference is that the kits are updated from time to time, so you can easily add your favorite kits.

It's the following part, but the Roll function is easy and good.

2019 08 14 23x34 05

I made a video of how easy it was to move.

I switched 10 Kits.

All are good sounds.

 

How to find additional paid kits

As of August 8, there are no free kits other than those included.

To find it, just select "Loop cloud Drum" from "FORMTS".

There are 132 kits.The price is 3p with 60 kits included.

Even if converted with the cheapest Artist plan, one kit is about 1 yen. (1 kits are included, so a total of about 160 yen)

It's not expensive when you think of it as a genre-specific drum kit.

2019 08 17 10x31 40

 

Loopcloud Play

The features are as follows.

・ 107 Instruments (All 107 are available in the free version)
・ You can search by genre or tag
・ Simple GUI

This is honestly not good.

First of all, the GUI is uselessly large.You don't need to look up like this.

2019 08 14 23x48 37

Next, there are overwhelmingly few parts that can be controlled.

You can't change things and poly, and unlike Drum, it doesn't come with a pattern, so I don't feel any advantage.

The top four knobs vary depending on the preset.

The other four are fixed.

2019 08 14 23x52 37

Is the only good place to search by genre or tag?

I took a video while changing the Instruments.
(No matter how you think about it, you don't need an old man's face)

How to find additional paid Instruments

As of August 8, there is no free charge other than the attachment.

To find it, just select "Loop cloud PLAY" from "FORMTS".

There are 390.The price is 10p with 40 pieces included.

To be honest, I don't really like it.

Japanese translation of Q & A

There are Q & A in both LoopCloud and LoopMaster, and although there are some overlaps, the amount of information is different, so I summarized them without duplication.

Japanese translation of LoopCloud Q & A

"Frequently Asked QuestionsThere was a fairly important thing written in ", so I will write a Japanese translation.

Please note that since it is a basic Google Translate, we cannot compensate even if you make a mistake in the contract.
Please be sure to check the original for contract-related matters.

Are all Loopclouds samples royalty-free?

Yes. Each sample downloaded from Loopcloud is fully licensed royalty-free.Samples purchased with points or through free quotas can be used for life.Click to see the full license terms.
 

Would you like to roll over if you haven't used up all the points? 

Yes, your points will never expire as long as your subscription is active.If you cancel your account or your subscription expires, your points will be frozen for 180 days, and if you return within that period, they will be re-added to your account and otherwise expired.
 

What computer platform and music software is compatible with Loopcloud?

Loopcloud is for Mac and PC.The software runs in standalone mode or via a VST bridge.It connects directly to music software that supports VST, such as Ableton Live, Apple Logic, Steinberg Cubase, Propellerheads Reason, Fruity Loops, and other VST-compatible products.
 

Can I get a free sound?

We've changed and improved the way Loopcloud accesses free sounds!Instead of getting the sound only from the latest pack, you now have access to free samples of almost every pack available on Loopcloud.With a total of over 25,000 sounds, it's increasing every day.Find the pack you like and click the "Free" tag in the product header to see the free sounds for that pack, or type "Free" in the search box to get a more customized list.Free users receive 1,825 free sounds annually, and Pro users receive 18,250 sounds.See the pricing page for more information on the daily limit for each subscription level.
 

What is an exclusive sample?

We work with top labels and artists to provide Loopcloud with an extensive selection of exclusive sample packs, sounds and expansions.These products aren't available anywhere else, even at Loopmasters.com.If you want to access something unique, use the exclusive filter tag in the search box or browse for the exclusive pack from the home page.
 

What happens to my points, sounds, and files if I cancel or freeze my subscription?

Samples purchased within Loopcloud or Loopmasters will remain forever.You can access the samples from the free version of the app and website.If you cancel your subscription, content stored on Google will be stored in the cloud for up to 90 days, after which the saved files may be deleted.Points will be frozen for up to 180 days.If you return to that period, it will be available again and you will be notified by email 30 days before it expires. I hope to return to my Loopcloud subscription.
Can I upgrade or downgrade as needed? -You can upgrade / downgrade your account at any time. At Studio and Professional subscription levels, you can add storage levels as your requirements grow.You can also replenish the point balance if you run out of points / data.
 

Can Loopcloud be used on multiple machines?

Yes.It can be used on as many computers as allowed at the subscription level. Unless you select the Professional level, which includes 4 computers, you currently have 2 computers.
What are the restrictions on the free version of Loopcloud? -The free version of Loopcloud still has many of the same great features as the paid version. In addition to all purchases from Loopmasters, you can add and tag additional sounds from your own collection.The free version includes two tracks instead of eight, and does not include the ability to adjust effects or search and download individual samples at monthly points.You cannot market edited regions or expand the content of the Loopcloud Plugin suite for VST instruments.
 

Will everything be returned if the hard drive fails? 

The data will be replicated more securely.It is unlikely that you will lose multiple copies at once, but we cannot guarantee it.You can duplicate the sample library by uploading the data to Loopcloud.All samples stored in the cloud library are available-for our terms and conditions, and for all products previously purchased from Loopmasters, local files are at risk if not duplicated.
 

If I delete a file from my computer, does it remain in the cloud?

Yes, if you copied it to a Cloud Storage folder.Also, purchases made from Loopmasters.com will always remain in your Loopcloud account.In this scenario, you run the risk of losing only files that you have not tagged locally and added to your cloud storage.
Is Loopcloud Private and Safe? -Data is passed using a secure protocol and backed up to a secure Amazon server using the latest technology and security measures.See our privacy policy for more information.
 

Are the tags saved?

Yes, it will be replicated to other machines connected to the same account.
 

Will it change anywhere if I edit it on another computer?

Loopcloud storage acts like a network drive.If you change the tag or change the file you want to save, it will be updated on all computers.However, if you _edit_ the contents of a file in storage, you will edit a local copy of the downloaded file, and these changes will be automatically reflected on other computers unless you add the modified file back to storage. It will not be.
 

What is the difference between Loopcloud 5 and Loopcloud 4?

Search has been improved with multitrack editing, Loopcloud instruments, cloud storage, a brand new user interface, audio effects and more.There is also an advanced feature and monthly point subscription model.The new inspiration has been replaced by a huge catalog of free sounds that can be searched directly from the app.It increases at the subscription level, but is available as a limited download that free users can get 1 per day.For more information, please visit www.Loopcloud.com.
 

How does search in Loopcloud 5 work?

Searching from anywhere will perform a global search for both the store and the library.It also shows some results so that you can start as soon as possible before interleaving the 200 store results and the user library results.You can use the new Filter Toolbar to search only stores or user libraries.If you search only for stores, you will get results for 200 stores instead of 1000. filter The filter toolbar also has an Audio button that excludes all non-audio content (such as sampler patches) by default.The search now shows huge and gorgeous lines containing photos and waveforms (a popular request!).You can click the button on the right side of the filter toolbar to return to the small line where the results are displayed on the screen.You can now add tags using autocomplete in the search box.If you want, you can search completely using the keyboard without using the mouse.Entering a number will also auto-complete the bpm search option.
 
 

Is there a compact mode?

Narrowing the app switches to "compact mode", reducing the set of information in the window size running in parallel with the DAW.You can turn on foreground mode in Preferences or drag it to the edge of the screen to snap to the edge of the screen.
 

What is Loopcloud Multitrack?

Multitrack is super cool.It can be used in two main ways.
-As a shortlist of loops or shots before deciding which one to use in the loop.
-As a sound design tool for creating new loops that combine multiple sounds.As a subscriber, you can use 8 tracks at a time (the engine supports more tracks, but 8 is appropriate and you need to prevent the user interface from becoming cluttered).Free users get two tracks. Like previous versions of Loopcloud, it can be used to preview the sound (by time and key).However, you can also sort sounds, create new sounds, preview only the audio subsections you need, export edited sounds, and more.
 

What is the Loopcloud effect?

Load the loop and click FX EDIT to add the effect.If you need a region or all the audio, use modulation. It's somewhere between DAW automation and Effectrix.More effects will be added in the coming months, but there are six in the current build.

 

Japanese translation of LoopMasters Q & A

The "Loop cloud FAQs" also contained some important information, so I will include a Japanese translation.

Please note that this is also a basic Google Translate, so even if you make a mistake in the contract etc., we can not compensate.
Please be sure to check the original for contract-related matters.

What is the Loopcloud plugin?

Loopcloud plugins are Loopcloud Drum and Loopcloud Play.A drum sequencer and sample player with a wide variety of sound libraries and a set of features to provide the best sound for your music.

2019 08 17 16x57 16

Do I need an internet connection to use Loopcloud?

Loopcloud streams audio files from a cloud server.This means that you need to be connected to the internet to use Loopcloud and the store.
Streams compressed audio, but still good enough for preview.The speed at which you hear the preview depends on the file size and internet speed. Above 10 mbps, most tasks are fine.Of course, the faster the internet, the faster the loop cloud.

Downloading the file to your computer means getting the file completely on the HDD (44.1 kHz, 24bit wav, etc.).Previews quickly become high quality and work offline.

Where are the samples stored?

All samples purchased from Loopmasters and the Loopcloud store are on the cloud server.You can download one, some, or all to your computer whenever you need it.

The file is saved in the following location:

Mac: Mac HD> [username]> Library> Loopcloud> Library
Windows: C:> Loopcloud
Loopcloud Cloud Storage according to subscription level

Can I save my own sample in Loopcloud?

Yes!When you import your own sample, Loopcloud will automatically tag keys, BPMs, devices and types.

Can I use samples purchased from pluginboutique.com?

No, this feature isn't available yet, but I'm working on it now.

Would you like to roll over if you haven't used up all the points?

Yes.As long as your subscription is active, your points will never expire and will not be rolled over.If you cancel your account or your subscription expires, your points will be frozen for 180 days, will be added to your account if you return within that period, and will expire otherwise.

What happens to my points, sounds, and files if I cancel or freeze my subscription?

Samples purchased within Loopcloud or Loopmasters will remain forever.You can access the samples from the free version of the app and website.If you cancel your subscription, content stored on Google will be stored in the cloud for up to 90 days, after which the saved files may be deleted.Points will be frozen for up to 180 days.If you return to that period, it will be available again and you will be notified by email 30 days before it expires. I hope to return to my Loopcloud subscription.

Yes, if you copied it to a Cloud Storage folder.Also, purchases made from Loopmasters.com will always remain in your Loopcloud account.In this scenario, you run the risk of losing only files that you have not tagged locally and added to your cloud storage.

 

Will it change anywhere if I edit it on another computer?

Loopcloud storage acts like a network drive.If you change the tag or change the file you want to save, it will be updated on all computers.However, if you _edit_ the contents of a file in storage, you will edit a local copy of the downloaded file, and these changes will be automatically reflected on other computers unless you add the modified file back to storage. It will not be.

Comment

  1. aka Than:

    I'm sorry to comment.

    Free Sounds / Day
    The previous NEW INSPIRATION has been abolished,
    Does the FREE version mean that you can get 5 samples every day?

    I don't quite understand the explanation.

    • yosi Than:

      thank you for your comment.
      I tried to find out what it was.
      If you enter free in the search window, a sample that can be downloaded for free will appear.
      It seems that this is up to 1 a day.This limit will be reset in the middle of the night of GMT.
      I will add information about this area as well.

  2. aka Than:

    Thank you for your reply.

    Looks like it.
    I also tried it, but it seems that even if it has already been added to the NEW INSPIRATION library, it is displayed without being recognized as added.

    It seems that if you add that sample to the library, it will be duplicated in the library.

    I want you to optimize here.

  3. borock Than:

    Nice to meet you, I have a question. It's a drum plug-in, can I assign my sample to a pad?If you can, could you tell me how to do it?

    • yosi Than:

      Nice to meet you.
      thanks for your questions.
      You certainly feel wondering.
      I think the drum plugin is completely for presets.
      I tried dragging the sample, but it didn't respond at all.
      If you want to increase the number of kits, you need to purchase at Loudcloud.
      There is "Loop could Drum" in "format" of Loopcloud, so you can search from here. (There was 132kit)
      A pack of 3 kits is sold at 60p.

  4. Hicky Than:

    Hello.
    To be honest, the new GUI feels strange and difficult to use.
    Is it possible to make it look black like ver4, or to arrange folders in a row like ver4 and select from there?

    • yosi Than:

      Hello.
      I didn't use ver4, so I'm not sure, but if you click "Your Library" at the top of the screen, the folder will be displayed.
      The skin has a function to change, but it is almost the same at present.I think it will increase in the future.
      There is a "Color scheme" in "Preferences" on the upper right, and you can change it from here.

  5. yuki81 Than:

    Nice to meet you, let me ask you a question.
    It's Loopcloud Drum, but I'm not sure how to use it in my DAW.
    It's not stand-alone, so I know I'll add a track as a VST instrument, but it doesn't seem to have MIDI control, nor does it seem to drag it as an audio file like Loopcloud does.
    The tempo is automatically synchronized with the DAW, but the loop of 2 patterns and up to 4 bars keeps ringing from the start to the stop, so how should I control it?
    I understand the operation of turning the power button on and off, but for example, when you want to play from the middle or when you want to play a fixed measure.
    What triggers the sound to come and go?Is it controlled by automation?
    I would appreciate it if you could teach me.

    • yosi Than:

      Nice to meet you.
      I think you can control the pattern.
      With FL Studio, the bass drum will be played with C3 (I think it's C1 with other DAWs), so I think it's a way to type it in by yourself.
      The pattern itself can be turned ON / OFF with the button at the bottom left.
      We will check in detail and reply again, so please take a moment.

      • yuki81 Than:

        Thank you for your reply.
        It seems that pattern control is not possible, and sound can be produced even from the piano roll.
        Thank you for the information.
        I'm assuming that when you want to play Loopcloud Drum only between arbitrary places in a song, or if you turn off LINK, you can create a pattern of at least 1 bar, so for example, the main rhythm is a so-called drum sound source. Leave it to me, and when you want to use one shot as an accent in a song.
        We apologize for the inconvenience, but would appreciate if you have any good ideas.

        • yosi Than:

          I reviewed the following video, but I think that there is no use other than the method I told you.
          https://youtu.be/Oh_BUDVFxwg

          Since the master volume can be automated, it can be played wherever you want to use it.
          After that, Mute for each Pad can also be automated, so I think that it can be inserted and removed.
