Hey everybody!
I'm approaching madness in this whole lockdown thing so I made I youtube vid...some cool effects! Hope you like it!
I got sent an Aeros Loop Studio from Singular Sound so I decided to have a play with it!
Thanks, have a great day wherever you are in the world!

Tres Cool, George! Very tasty! But shouldn't all those basses be hanging at least six feet from each other? lol
Bill, tgo

Sounds awesome...
Do you think you could offer up your thoughts on the Aeros? Pros and Cons, etc..? was looking at this on the sweetwater site and there are a few negative reviews, but Im not sure if they've been fixed with any updates.

Hey, thanks so much!
Thoughts - INCREDIBLE! Honestly, I love mine! I've had it for probably just over 2 weeks now and it took a bit of time to get to grips with!
Pros - Excellent sound quality, durable, so far...I haven't taken it out on the streets...I don't wanna wreck it, fairly lightweight. Once learnt how to use, dead easy. User interface is good! In house mixer is pretty great, a cool trick. Can do a loop for about 2:17 roughly which is pretty great, there are talks of making it longer. Unlimited overdubs both in 2x2 and 6x6 mode. Can undo and redo loops which is nice. Works with external MIDI controllers but it's best to use it a SLAVE rather than a master.
The Singular Sound team are pretty good at communicating with customers and talking on forums about the Aeros. They seem to be fairly frequent with the updates and really value feedback...they are pretty on it which is a nice thing. Shows they care.
Cons - Touch Screen a little bit unresponsive at times but it's a new device and I'm sure it's down to the internal computer...so I think that will be improved on. Probably not waterproof. Can be limited in some aspects, it's not got a Mic XLR in or Out and no phantom power so you'd need a pre-amp for a mic...Can only have two channels going in an out...BUT can record via AUX in if you have the latest version.
There's a few things it can and can't do. It can record to an SD card but so far, I've decided that's not the best way to go...with effects like reverb that carry over to the next loop...the tail gets cut off HOWEVER, it's great for getting additional ideas down if you aren't going straight into your DAW.
The USB port so far isn't a working feature, they are working on something for that though.
If you've got the cash then I think it's worth it...It's a good standalone looper...it does have a freeform mode which takes practice but really...MIDI and MIDI controller with time clock is the best way to go...it will sync with anything I reckon...
I've probably missed a few things out but I'm sure the https://forum.singularsound.com/c/general-discussion (https://forum.singularsound.com/c/general-discussion) can help you out too!
Thanks!
