MIDI That Works How You Want It To
The highlight of Loopcloud 7.4? A massive MIDI update that finally makes MIDI files as easy to use as your favorite samples. With over 150,000 MIDI files tagged by key, instrument, and genre, finding something that fits your project is faster than ever.
And Loopcloud didn’t stop there. They’ve made auditioning MIDI files a breeze with six customizable preview voices (think Saw, Pluck, Drum Kit, and more), so you can hear exactly how a file will sound in context before you commit. On top of that, their Pitch Lock feature means any MIDI file instantly snaps to your project’s key and tempo. No more wasting time trying to make things line up—it just works.
Multi-Track Workflow = More Creative Control
Loopcloud’s multi-track editor has always been a solid feature for working with layered audio. Now, it’s got a MIDI glow-up. Whether you’re sketching out ideas, layering parts, or just fine-tuning your tracks, the multi-track editor makes it easy to experiment. And when you’re ready to bounce, the flexible export options ensure your work transfers seamlessly to your DAW.
Free Plugin Bundle for Annual Subscribers
Loopcloud didn’t just stop with a killer update—they’re sweetening the deal for subscribers. Sign up for an annual plan before January 6th, and you’ll get an exclusive plugin bundle packed with essentials like:
- Native Instruments Massive
