Yep he's plooping alright. Lolz can't believe he called it plooping.

That would require the use of 4 buttons. At which time does he switch modifiers in the video?

i don't believe he's changing the key, unless he has a macro mapped, and even still the loops's key doesn't sound like it changes when he first starts decreasing the size. he's only using two buttons on the nanopad, one to decrease loop size (the top left corner), and one to increase the loop size (bottom left corner). which begs the question i was hoping somebody would address after seeing my first post: is there a way to cut loops smaller than 1/32 in Traktor?

yes, loop speed is programmable (that would be bpm/tempo), but i believe what you mean to ask is if loop size is programmable. and the answer to that obviously is yes, as well.

Its possibilities are whatever the software, Traktor in this case has to offer. By mapping. So yes.

tbh, not watched vid, or fully read all comments

BUT

sounds like plooping is a foot, check the homepage for the vid with shiftee explaining what he's doing... from last week i believe 'turntablism tabernacle'

link cos i'm feeling kind

edit; beaten to it cos got distracted by twitter...

To me, it just sound like a short loop and playing with the key for the the most part. But the confusing part is how he achieved doing so in such short steps.

Its kinda hard to tell what all is going on or what is pressed. He sets up the loop and starts to shorten with one of the nano buttons. Then moves his cursor (somewhere you can't really see in the video) and presses the same two buttons to control the key and its sounds like it has value (decent sized jumps).

Idk, but thanks for bringing this up. Missed it the first time watching.

You could say direct modifiers. But you would need to use 4 buttons.

Just some thoughts:
Maybe he's just setting his loop to 1/32 and then use pitch to make it faster ?
Or he sets his loop to 1/32 and change the sound by moving the loop along the track ?

You said sound playing 1/32.but he click nanopad looks like more than 1/32.sound speed is can be 1/64 or more?because I believe loops speed playing 1/32 and you can't speed no more..

The way it looks is that Shiftee has the button mapped to set a loop and the with each press decreases the size of the loop. When he gets to the end he switches that same button to change the key in the same way. The button underneath the top buttons works the same way it just increases the loop size or the key.

I THINK, all he's doing is decreasing the size of a loop each time he hits the button on his silver controller (looks like a nanopad). you'll notice that if you set a loop and continually cut it in half, the smaller the loop, the more it starts to take on it's own tone/timbre. i only know how to get a loop as small as 1/32 in Traktor, though there must be a way to cut them down further because Shiftee's using it in the video, but i've actually messed around jumping between 1/8, 1/16, and 1/32 loops during mixes for the tonal sounds they create.
