Lobith Audio Debuts Chop‑R - A Grid‑Based Loop Randomizer
Lobith Audio Debuts Chop‑R - A Grid‑Based Loop Randomizer

Chop‑R re-imagines beat slicing. It chops your loops into a precise grid, then lets you reorder them with groove‑preserving algorithms for entirely new rhythms, without losing tempo or musicality.

Seamless Loop Manipulation

Inspired by producers like Premier and Jah Dilla, this draws from boom bap Hip-hop workflows, to re-arrange loops to create new musical ideas. Chop‑R splits any loop into equal slices, either manually defined or auto‑detected, so you maintain the original feel even when rearranging content. Time‑stretching and automatic pitch matching let your loops seamlessly conform to any project key or tempo.

Creative Randomization, Full Control

The core “Chop” function leverages multiple unique algorithms to randomize slice playback while offering a sequencer to lock, tweak, or rearrange slices manually:

Save Beats I–III – Keep rhythmic context intact.
Save Beats Break - Avoid the downbeat.
EDM / Repetitive – Highlight or isolate specific beats (downbeats in the case of EDM).
Half‑Speed / Consecutive – Muted odd slices or pair two consecutive ones for a half-time feel.
Sequential – Gradually increasing slice sizes for evolving patterns.
Ragga – Dancehall‑style rearrangements.
Smooth – Granular‑like transitions.
Full Random – Total chaos with musical motion.

Built‑In Effects to Shape Your Sound

Use filters, EQ, and distortion to spice up the rearranged loops:

Resonant low, high, and band‑pass filters
EQ section, which doubles as distortion tone control, for tonal adjustments
Multiple distortion flavors, including an extreme “digital” option for edgy textures
