Headrush Looperboard Advanced Performance Looper

4-track Stereo Looper with 7" Touchscreen and Onboard FX

The HeadRush Looperboard may be the most advanced looping system built for both the stage and studio environments. With this one tool you can forge dynamic loops in the heat of a show, craft rich vocal harmonies using the onboard intelligent harmonizer, then export multitrack audio to your DAW for later layering and mixing. Looperboard’s 7" high-res touchscreen display provides real-time visual feedback and hands-on tactile control of up to four stereo loops. Dedicated Stop/Undo and Rec/Play switches for each loop (customizable) make it possible to flesh out entire songs and create multitrack mixes on the fly. Looperboard’s onboard effects engine is packed with purpose-driven presets for guitar, vocals, percussion, and beyond. There’s even MIDI connectivity for syncing with external synths, drum machines, and recording setups, along with audio over USB for direct recording capability. Automatic BPM detection and quantization perfect the process of live looping. And with its limitless loop time and simple SD/USB export and importing, the HeadRush Looperboard is equipped to keep full sets of dynamic backing tracks at your disposal.

Loaded with premium effects

Looperboard is loaded with a ton of premium modeling and FX. With so many great sounds right onboard, you can easily make Looperboard your all-in-one gigging solution for all performance and looping needs.

Quad-core DSP

Looperboard's quad-core architecture provides plenty of power for manipulating multitrack audio without bottlenecking.

12-switch layout

Dedicated switches and LEDs for each loop's stop/undo and record/play functions, along with a master loop stop/start switch and those for tap-tempo and FX, put Looperboard's incredible recording and processing potential right at your feet.

Intelligent time stretching

Feel like changing up your set? Looperboard gives you a tap-tempo switch with intelligent time stretching, allowing you to speed up and slow down loops at will without altering pitch.

Automatic BPM detection and quantization

Looking for rock-solid live beat production and part creation? Looperboard's auto BPM detection and quantization keep you in the pocket, from beatboxing to guitar layering.

Flexible routing

Looperboard offers endless ways to consolidate your audio into one central hub. Four XLR-1/4" combo inputs with dedicated gain controls and +48 phantom power are equipped to accept everything from microphones to guitar and keyboard gear, with MIDI in/out/thru to maintain sync with external devices. XLR and 1/4" outputs allow you to drive a stage amp and feed a soundboard or recording medium simultaneously. There's even a headphone output for silent monitoring and an 1/8" stereo aux input for audio playback from your phone or tablet.

Streamlined user interface

Looperboard's Firmware 2.0 answers the call for an even simpler, more streamlined GUI. Highlights include:

Navigation Menu supplies breezier feature access
File browsers allow for simpler importing/exporting
Storage page shows remaining loop time for the internal drive and connected external drives
Combined Mixer+Meter page creates a better presentation overall

Vocal tuning & harmonies

In addition to its all-instrument suitable onboard FX suite, Looperboard now includes intelligent vocal tuning and harmonization. Whether you're going for T-Pain tuned effect or one-touch vocal harmonies, you can now access these and more directly from the HeadRush Looperboard.

Flawless recording quality

A premium 32-bit/48kHz floating point signal path within the HeadRush Looperboard preserves the full dynamics and range of every incoming audio source. Drums to vocals, bass to guitar, you can be sure that every layer is heard, felt, and sensed just as it was the moment you first performed it.

Unlimited record time

With unlimited onboard recording capability, Looperboard gives you not just songs but entire sets worth of pre-recorded material and looping potential. This makes it a viable option not only for looping aficionados but also for carting dynamic full-band accompaniment to your solo shows and for reproducing vocal harmonies live onstage.

Export loops via USB or SD

An integrated USB audio interface allows you to record your sets directly to a laptop. You can also store loops onto an SD card or USB drive for safekeeping.
