¶ Blooper
Category: 🎮 Controllers
¶ Description
Catches an audio sample bubble and plays it as a synced loop. Touch the rotor to scratch and beat-repeat, press the center to start/stop. The loop length is rounded to powers of two to stay in sync with the beat.
Bring an audio sample bubble close to the Blooper to feed it. Once swallowed, the sample is played in sync with the global tempo (the loop length is automatically rounded to the nearest power of two beats). Touch the central button to start/stop playback. Touch the rotor (around the edge) to scratch the sample or to enter beat-repeat mode: the further from the center, the longer the repeat. Marbles can also hit it to toggle playback or trigger beat repeats. Use the radial menu to eject the bubble.
