Polyend Loop 8-Track Performance Looper

The Polyend Loop is an 8 track standalone performance looper that fuses four audio loop tracks with a four track sample based drum machine in a compact, pedalboard friendly box. Designed for hands on live performance, it lets you capture ideas in seconds, build full arrangements on the fly and move between song sections without ever touching a computer.

With up to 60 seconds of mono or stereo recording per loop track, more than 100 built in effects and deep integration with MIDI and expression control, Loop is equally at home on stage, in the rehearsal room or as the centrepiece of a compact studio. A huge factory library of kits, rhythms, samples and loops means you can start creating immediately, while microSD storage and WAV import make it easy to bring your own sounds and export material for later mixing in a DAW.

Eight Track Performance Powerhouse

Loop combines four independent audio loop tracks with four dedicated drum tracks, giving you a complete performance architecture in a single unit. You can build evolving soundscapes, tight song structures or improvised jams by layering live instruments on the loop tracks while the drum machine handles grooves and accents. Each track has its own level and pan controls, so you can balance your mix directly on the hardware without external gear.

Creative Looping with Varispeed and Playback Modes

Each of the four loop tracks can record up to 60 seconds of mono or stereo audio, with independent lengths for polyrhythmic and experimental structures. Forward, reverse and ping pong playback can be set per track, opening up instant textural variation without re recording. Varispeed lets you decide whether loops follow the Project tempo with linked pitch and speed changes, or run free at their own rate for more unconventional performance approaches.

Integrated Drum Machine and Sequencer

The built in four track, sample based drum machine turns Loop into a complete groove workstation. Each Project offers 16 patterns with 16 steps per pattern, plus detailed per step parameter control so you can program dynamic, evolving beats. With more than 500 factory drum kits, 350 rhythms, 2,000 drum samples and 180 loops included, you have a huge palette ready to go, and you can record your own drum samples directly via the audio input to create fully custom kits.

Performance Focused Workflow and Connectivity

Loop is built for live use, with quantised Project switching that lets you jump between intros, verses, choruses and outros at the end of the current bar, keeping everything tight and musical. You can store up to 1,000 Projects, each containing loops, patterns, tempo, effects and performance settings. TRS MIDI and bidirectional USB MIDI provide clock, transport, Program Change and Control Change integration with external hardware and software, while the expression pedal input lets you assign hands free control to almost any performance parameter.

• Eight Track Standalone Performance Engine - Four audio loop tracks and four sample based drum tracks live in one compact unit, giving you everything you need to build full arrangements without a computer. This integrated design keeps your setup simple and reliable, ideal for live performance and streamlined studio workflows.
• Deep Loop Control with Varispeed and Playback Modes - Each loop track offers up to 60 seconds of mono or stereo recording, independent lengths, and selectable forward, reverse or ping pong playback. Varispeed lets you lock loops to the Project tempo or let them drift independently, so you can move from tight, song based looping to experimental textures with ease.
• Powerful Drum Machine with Huge Factory Library - The four track drum engine delivers 16 patterns per Project and 16 steps per pattern, with detailed per step control for expressive programming. Over 500 drum kits, 350 rhythms, 2,000 drum samples and 180 loops give you instant access to a wide range of genres, while direct sample recording lets you build your own signature kits.
• Flexible Connectivity, Storage and MIDI Integration - Instrument, line and microphone compatible input, dual outputs, expression pedal input, TRS MIDI and USB MIDI make Loop easy to drop into almost any rig. microSD storage supports loading samples and loops, saving individual loop tracks as WAV files and storing up to 1,000 Projects, so your performances and ideas are always ready to recall.
