Update!
When you’re in the Note menu, pressing R + Start should switch the view.
Since the latest NL update the bar view with relative switch has become standard.
I've got an Analogue Pocket and now i can actually use Nanoloop thanks to you!
That is so awesome! Have fun with it :)
Grab your Pocket or GBA and jam along! If you have questions, lemme know. This is meant to cover the basics and show you how to get started. Have fun!
Cool tutorial 💕
I have a question. How can I make a partial note? I mean, a note who sounds in a loop, but in the next loop doesn't sound at all.
@@thenextzoneoficial I explain that at 20:15 ;)
@@vvlvmusic f#ck, I been distracted in that part x'd
I have to see it all again n.n
Thank you 💕
This video explained EXACTLY what I wanted to know! You did such a great job teaching the basics of Nanoloop. Thanks a lot!
That’s so cool, thanks for the kind feedback. Really stoked to get more people into NL 🙌🏻
Best Tutorial i found, thanks a lot. You really explain the functions very good and easy, not to complicated like other tutorials do 🙂
Thanks for the feedback! Glad the tutorial provided some help. I tried my best to cover every basic detail because I know it can get very overwhelming at first.
Thank you, this is just the type of basic introduction to Nanoloop on Pocket that I was looking for to get me started. 👍
Glad to hear that, man. Have fun with the Pocket. I am eagerly waiting for my dock to arrive to film some videos via HDMI out.
Great tutorial --- thank you! This came up first on my RUclips search, and I see why. Well done.
Hey Ray, thank you very much for the kind words. Glad I could be of help :)
Amazing tutorial! Really great explanations and very helpful. Keep up the good work!
Love the positive feedback. Thanks!!
I needed to watch this sooner! Glad Homerchu is here, too 😊
Glad you found it, hope the video helped to get you jamming!
Really well done! Thanks so much for this! Woot! 😁👊
Anytime, man! Glad you liked it.
great walkthrough! well done! 👏
Thanks, man! Appreciate your support :)
Great walkthrough and explanation! I've just bought a Nanoloop 2 for GBA and completely puzzled by it's minimalist interface:)
Thanks for checking it out! I felt a bit rusty but it was fun to improvise a little jam. The interface seems a little obscure at first but as soon as it clicks it’s so much fun to play around with.
Really underestimated the power of this tool. Sick tutorial!
Heck yeah, glad you’re enjoying it! Nanoloop is pretty great.
Very helpful! Thanks so much
Happy it provided use for you. Thanks.
Was very fun to follow you -- thank you!
That’s great to hear, thanks for watching ✌🏻
Great tutorial! Thanks so much!
Makes me happy to hear it helped someone to get started. Thank you.
Awesome awesome video, thank you so much! made my first beat thanks to this tutorial!
That’s awesome, thanks for letting me know :)
Wow, such a great introduction to Nanoloop, thank you for making this tutorial! I can finally use it in my Analogue Pocket, I tried to learn by myself and I just couldn't wrap my head around it 😂 You deserve more followers 🤍
Hey, thank you for the lovely comment. Really glad the video was helpful.
Also: totally agreed on the subscriber thing 😉
thanks a ton for making this video!
My pleasure. Hope it helps.
Thanks for this it helped a ton!
Happy to hear that! 🙌🏻
Excellent tutorial. Thank you so much. ♡
Glad it provided some useful info. Thanks for the kind comment :)
Heck yeah, I'd discovered most of these but the pattern saving and muting was eluding me. And some of the filter modes were accidents I didn't know how to repeat. The delay effect in the "swing amount" screen was a nice surprise for sure though. Definitely going to be messing more with chords now too.
Brilliant!
🩵 thanks!
I was gonna buy a Analogue Pocket to just play games on...but when I saw it could run Nanoloop I immediately got excited. Would work perfect with my Polyend Tracker - could use this for some synth sounds/sequences to go along with the samples.
You could even sync it with the right cable and mess with the loop(s) in real time. Nanoloop was my main reason for the Pocket tbh.
Until now, I only use Android Nanoloop and Nanoloop FM, but enjoyed the tutorial very much and especially your approach ;D
Maybe one day I´ll check if my Gameboy is still alive, reanimate it and get a Nanoloop cartridge
Hey man, thanks a bunch for checking it out. Getting a Nanoloop cartridge is still worth it imo. The 2 is such a versatile and great sounding synth. Tons of fun.
Thank you. Well done. The best run down on Nanoloop. More on sound design?
Might do a follow-up if there’s interest, that goes into sound design, song mode, connectivity etc. still a lot of stuff left I could cover
@@vvlvmusic mom, help! 😭
@@JonConley whaaaaat? Just eat your Lebkuchen. It'll all come together eventually.
Amazing Tutorial! I started making tunes on my pocket and was wondering what is the best way to transfer files to PC and/or Mac?
Thank you! Well you can’t really transfer files from Nanoloop to another platform. You can only record the audio output of the Pocket (which drivers really clean audio quality). Lemme know if that helps
Hell yeah man i just got a nanoloop 2
Oh that’s great, hope you’re gonna have fun with NL 2. it’s quite powerful
Sweet vid! The Analogue Pocket looks fantastic in white, especially next to the TX-6! Are there other Music production games aside from Nanoloop and LSDJ? Those are the only 2 I know.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it. There’s not much going on in terms of music production games. The GameBoy camera has a VERY minimalistic 16 step sequencer hidden feature. Or you could try Pocket Music for the GBA. Also there’s a bunch of homebrew trackers like Furious Advance Tracker. :)
@@vvlvmusic Ah I see, thanks for the tip. I have a Nanoloop cartridge from like 2004 and it pretty awful on the OG Gameboy display. I wonder if it's worth scouting a used Analogue Pocket. I'm not much of a gamer though 😑
@@vvlvmusic I've subbed to your chan do you have a vid on their usb midi cables?
@@kitespongan To me the Pocket is totally worth it, if you want to make GameBoy music. The screen is simply the best handheld screen I've ever seen and the audio quality is as clean as it gets. The Analogue Midi cable... I don't recall using it for a video, but I might use it in a coming video for sure.
I finally gave Nanoloop a try, wanting to get into it totally fresh... and yeah, I got stuck on the basic beep just like that. Haha. I already wanted to watch your tutorial eventually, but now I really really need it!
Lemme know if it helped you to get started! That basic beep haunts me! :)
@@vvlvmusic after about 5 minutes I’ve now made a couple basic beats, and a chord progression my gf said sounded like a cave theme 👍 slowly trying each part before watching the next bit!
@@kaitlyn__L a cave theme 😅 you’re off to a great start then. Are you planning on posting some of it as well?
@@vvlvmusic I’ve posted wee clips of the loops to my private Twitter, I’m gonna sample the ones I like best and maybe make a proper track in Ableton :)
Though on this unit the notes are represented by the height of a bar, like piano roll or something, while I’d much prefer the note names like on your screen. Not sure if that’s a setting you go into later, but I didn’t exactly see a settings menu when you were showing the UI. So I’m counting semitones like I’m manually tuning samples, but it’s getting the job done!
@@vvlvmusic I’ve just discovered how to make 303 sounds with L and R ahahahah
At the bar not really able to hear but whoa nanoloop in tst device so neat. What a solid tool nanoloop is can we get this on the steamdeck?
I honestly don’t know if there are working roms for GameBoy emulators out there. Theoretically it’s possible but I have no idea, sorry ✌🏻
Thanx bro , I wonder how I can Incorporate the pocket with my vintage Korg M1? Awesome Tutorial
Hm. You could make a beat on the Pocket and play some synths on the M1 live to it? There’s not much you can do in terms of connecting the two, except Midi sync it to the sequencer if you have the Midi to Pocket cable. But I am not sure how it’d work to be honest 😅
@@vvlvmusic good point. Thanks bro
Intricate... Not a Word oder teachers roll me. Good to know. Sort of wobbly, nice
Hey vvlv :) great video. I just have one question. Compèred to the original gba with nanoloop, does the analogue pocket has any noise or him in the sound? Im very close to buy one for myself and I really like all the features from the analogue, but honestly I only want the cleanest sound. Thank you
Hey Hans :) Nanoloop on the Pocket is the cleanest sounding version. No humming. So if you want the best version of NL2, this is definitely it. And it’s a lovely device.
Thanks a lot ❤ :)
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
My handsome son, I will attempt to learn this. Please call home, every so often.
To be honest, I lost your number. And my phone. And my wallet. Can you PayPal me some cash for this urgent medical bill? F&F only. Thx mom. Your son. Name: son.
@@vvlvmusic please, me as well. Urgent medical bill! But on a serious note, thanks for this tutorial. I've been enjoying your channel.
@@mattabs4709 urgent medical bill you say? Of course I’ll send you my credit card information! But also: thanks for the kind comment, I appreciate that.
Your pocket sounds a lot cleaner than mine does when following along! Is this because of the teenage engineering piece you have there? or what it's being recorded into? I get noise on mine when playing with headphones or right out of the pocket speakers. Any advice?
Hey, so what’s your setup like, how do you record it? What I do is crank the volume of the pocket to max, that leaves the least amount of noise floor imo. Also try to use a somewhat high quality cable for recording. That’s pretty much all I can think of right now. How’s sound for you with games when using the pocket?
@@vvlvmusic Hi! Thanks for replying so quickly! I've found that it's the kick drum has a lot of noise to it. That's the part that doesn't come out as clean as what I'm seeing in your video. This is just straight off the Pocket. Not recording into anything. Using both headphones, or out of the speakers. Other volume seems fine. Not sure if this helps explain.
appreciate the video,
Glad if it was of any help!
definitely. i dig your hardware pieces, makes me want to get some, yet i'm fairly inexperienced with hardware. but looking forward to experimenting w/ nanoloop. would you be willing to do a quick tutorial on how to transfer beats / individual tracks to ableton? if not maybe a more in depth nanoloop tutorial?@@vvlvmusic

Do you know how to set up MIDI keyboards with the Pocket?
You can’t control Nanoloop with a Midi keyboard, it doesn’t accept any midi input. I’ll look into the functionality of the Midi in cable for the pocket but I can’t help you as of yet ;)
Do you know if these features are also included on the iPad version?
The iOS version is the only one I never really used, so I honestly do not know. Sorry.
Thanks for the video! Im doing ok, but I can't figure out how to display notes as letters. For some reason mine is a 'bar' rather that a 'C' for example. What do I need to press?
When you’re in the note menu, pressing the R button together with Start should switch the view if I remember correctly
@@vvlvmusic thank you so much. That did it!!
Awesome :)
how are you getting the note value to display like, a,b,c,d,e,f etc instead of just the dot grid? i cant find this command setting. any luck syncing the ep133 poko2 and nanoolop2? hope your doing good
When you’re in the Note menu, pressing R + Start should switch the view. Since the latest NL update the bar view with relative switch has become standard.
I am working on a little jam with the EP133 and Nanoloop, hope to post something soon :)
@@vvlvmusic that’s soo freaking cool dude. The world is crazy. You inspired me. I’m excited to see what you can do with it and look forward to it . From what I can tell no one has put anything out like that you will be the first
How do you feel about the analogue pocket for use with a OP-1
Difficult for me to answer since I don’t have the OP-1 but I can imagine it being a fun combo
1st in the queue
Thanks for joining!
how to place the notes? I’ve tried to place a note but only a bar symbol. I need to know C symbol
Did you follow the tutorial from the beginning? I explain every step. Press select and chose the note symbol in the bottom menu.
Is it true that the nanoloop is pre-built into the pocket? I saw something on their website about it
Yeah the Pocket comes with Nanoloop. It’s basically Nanoloop 2 but the audio sounds cleaner than the GBA version.
I am getting annoying notes randomly in playback. It happens in your video. That first sound when you load nanoloops, it keeps sounding when I dont want it to during live performance. Is there a way of getting rid of it? Sometimes I hear it sometimes i dont... its frustrating.
"a beeping sound"
Bad news: that beep does keep happening. Sometimes not. It seems random and I have not found a way to influence that. Hoping for future firmware’to eliminate that annoyance.
@@vvlvmusic That's the answer i thought I was going to get after messing with it for so long. Thanks for your hard work. Latest video is very cool. I seem to hear less of it if I reset from time to time. (load all (A+down) on save slot 0).
Can I use nanoloop with a midi keyboard?
You can’t. It only supports midi as a sync tool but it can’t be played like a synth
Is nanoloop open source. Been looking for something easy to make music for my game just wanna make sure you can sell music made in nanoloop
Nanoloop isn’t open source but the music you make with it is yours to do with whatever you want.
Can you load your own samples?
Nope. Nanoloop is purely synthesis based. No sampling. LSDJ would give you sample options, albeit very limited ones.
Is nanoloop 2 ever in stock?
It randomly pops up every once in a while. Lately it seems that NL is not being taken care of anymore.
Somebody's a Phantasy Star fan 👍
The game that got me into RPGs 💙
How come when I place a note I don't see the letters?
when you’re in the Note menu, pressing R + Start should switch the view. Since the latest NL update the bar view with relative switch has become standard.
@@vvlvmusicOh thanks! So if I understood correctly, in the newer versions the notes or chords (The letters) are supposed to be visible without pressing R + Start?
@@Javeton exactly. It’s the new default :)
@@vvlvmusic Oh cool! I just got the pocket on Tuesday and updated it but I didn't see the chords enabled so I assume I have to update the NL separately?
@@Javeton now I am confused. NL updates automatically. And the only difference should be that when you start a blank project that the notes you place look different. You see some graphic depiction instead of letters. The input combo I told you (while in the note section of the menu) will change that view. Everything else should be exactly like in my video. Hope that helped 👍🏻
