Enso Looper

*** PLEASE READ ****

Enso is an AudioUnit V3 plugin; it requires an AUv3 host like Cubasis, Garageband, AUM, etc.
THERE IS NO STANDALONE APP; it is only a container for the AUv3.

An architecturally unique and sonically characterful looping toolkit for producers and live performers, inspired by both modern looper pedals and vintage tape-based setups, Enso combines elegant and intuitive UI design with a deep but accessible feature set and stellar sound quality.

Ensos operation will be immediately familiar to users of hardware looper pedals or plugins such as Ableton Lives bundled Looper.
Start playback of the host DAW, hit Ensos record button and capture your instrumental performance into a loop of whatever length you like, up to ten minutes (five minutes on iOS).
Then, without stopping playback, overdub further passes to create layered grooves, complex harmonic textures, or dense, evolving soundscapes.

Beyond those basics, though, Enso takes software looping into new territory.
Two Overdub modes configure the plugin for conventional looper pedal behaviour or Frippertronics-style dual tape deck manoeuvres, affecting the handling of the Feedback parameter for an endless range of layering possibilities; and up to four Sectors can be effortlessly defined, each with its own start and end points, for on-the-fly rearrangement of the loop.

With Enso, time and motion become truly fluid, as speed and direction are handled completely independently for playback and recording, the through-zero bipolar Speed controls smoothly transitioning from forwards to backwards, and vice versa, in real time.
Want to record forwards at half speed, while simultaneously playing the buffered loop in reverse at 1.25x? Of course you do

Onboard tape-style saturation, filtering and chorus effects bring dirt, frequency-shaping and stereo thickening to the party; and a comprehensive MIDI assignment system makes it a snap to set your MIDI pedal or button controller up for operation of all Ensos buttons and switches.
With its animated play and record heads, meanwhile, the looping waveform display provides a clean, clear visual representation of the potentially mind-bending temporal acrobatics taking place, letting you get a handle on exactly whats happening at a glance.

Giving you everything you need for limitlessly creative looping, on stage and in the studio, Enso is one of Audio Damages most beautifully realized plugins yet, and an empowering addition to any musicians arsenal of effects,
