Keyboard shortcuts

The default keys for transport, tracks and drum pads. All of them are remappable.

On this page

Loopylicious can be driven entirely from the keyboard. These are the defaults; every one of them can be changed (or mapped to MIDI) in the Controls panel, see MIDI and mapping.

Transport and view

  • Space: play all tracks
  • Backspace: stop all tracks
  • F11: toggle fullscreen / immersive mode
  • Escape: leave fullscreen

Tracks

  • 1 to 9: tap track 1 to 9 (arm, start, overdub or re-enter, depending on the track's state)

Each track's own buttons handle stop, mute, clear (hold) and undo/redo. Volume is a vertical drag on the track ring.

Drum pads

  • Q W E R: pads 1 to 4
  • A S D F: pads 5 to 8
  • Z X C V: pads 9 to 12

Pads 13 to 16 have no default key, but you can map them (and everything else) yourself.

Want a footswitch, a fader or a pad controller instead? Any control can be bound to MIDI with MIDI-learn.
