Loop Player
Play pre-made loop files from disk, tempo-matched to your set. On the Rane One it's the second mode button, printed SAVED LOOP.
Where Live Looper records loops on the fly, Loop Player is your library of prepared loops — drum breaks, basslines, whole sections — ready to drop in.
Pads and banks
- 8 pads × 4 banks per deck — 32 loops per deck.
- Tap a pad to start its loop; tap again to stop.
- Loops load in the background, so browsing and assigning doesn't interrupt the audio.
Loading loops onto pads
- Shift + hold an on-screen pad to open the loop file browser for that pad.
- Loop files live in your Loops folder (
~/Music/Skratch Attach/Loopson Mac; the app's Music folder on iOS). Drop your loop collection there and it shows up in the browser.
Tempo matching
Tempo matching needs the metronome on. With it running, Loop Player detects each loop's BPM and time-stretches it to the metronome tempo, and a triggered loop waits for the downbeat of the next bar before it starts — so everything you trigger lands in time, on the "1".
With the metronome off, loops play exactly as recorded: no stretching, no waiting.
Settings
Settings → Pad Modes → Loop Player:
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| "Auto-detect BPM when loading loops" | Analyzes each file's tempo on load so it can be stretched to match |
| "Cache stretched loops for large tempo changes" | Pre-renders stretched versions so big tempo jumps stay glitch-free |
Secondary mode
Pressing SAVED LOOP again while Loop Player is active switches to SkratchPads — DVS-controlled scratch samples.
