Welcome Back To Looperman
After two months in the darkness I'm proud to announce looperman V2. The site has been completely rebuilt from the ground up. The database has been streamlined and the design given a facelift.
All the previous data is intact as are all your previous user accounts. You will need to request a new password though as they have all been re encrypted.
Hopefully you'll find the new design easier to use and I'm sure before long you'll know where everything is. You will notice some features that used to exist on the previous site are no longer with us and some new features have made an appearance. That's not to say that some of the missing old features will not make their way back into the new site in the future.
While we are testing out the site in a live environment some areas such as the forums are accessible via invite only. If you dont already have access and think that you should then get in touch. Access will only be granted to users who were active previously though. Another change is regards uploading tracks. For now you are limited to uploading only one track per day rather then the five per week rule that we used to have. There will be a few changes to how the featured tracks work too but Ill let you know about then when its ready.
Youll also notice that we now have a blog. Ill be using this to post articles and tutorials in future and will be moving stuff like the site news and announcements here instead of the forums.
All in all there is a lot more to come and some sections still work in progress but for now enjoy the new site and if you find any problems get in touch.
Finally thanks for all the support from those of you who waited patiently and a massive thank you to those who helped out with beta testing.
I'm glad to be back in the loop. Checking out the changes to the site. Getting acclamated to it slowly but surely. Check out Ordinary Guy and I can't leave you Alone on my page and leave some feedback. Thank you
Glad to be back. Love the new look, but I cant upload any loop. I'we made a whole loop package that weights about 250 mb but I realy cant upload a songle one. Need some help ? :)
Damn! Feels good to be back. Love the new look. Miss the old site though but its all good. Cant wait to upload the beats i produced while the loop was down.
Greetings from GH. Peace.
Hi all,
I am sure this is probably the incorrect place for this, but I want to know how exactly I can go about requesting access to the forums?
I made this new account very shortly before the site went down so didnt get chance to be much of an "active member" with it, but on my old account, "Dekidasu" I believe I was a fairly active participant in the community and was so for a good while, but now I feel rather alienated :(
Nice to be back,but I miss a lot of the old features.
The site seams to be missing the oomph it used to have.Hope it comes back gradually,but maybe it's just me,I don't enjoy change that much.Why fix something that's not broken?
Please don't all attack me!I'm being nostalgic,not negative.The loop is still the best site around!xxx
Fantastic work Shan! :D
The only thing that I find missing that I really liked on the old site - and maybe you've already addressed this - was the points-based ranking system. (where you got different colors for your name) Will this come back?
Why do comments appear on the last page and not the first? Is this the wrong way around?
Well it's good to see Looperman back, I miss the plays counter from the old site, not so keen on the new Featured track, bit low down in the page I think, the site does looks a little generic now, sorry to moan but I'm only being honest. Good to be back tho.
Well done indeed! I like the new interface and layout, yet I don't really feel like there's much that's new in terms of functionality? Are these listed somewhere or on the way? I think I used to be able to edit comments too.. not anymore?
Was just curious as to when we will be able to upload loops again.
I have a profile from the old site under KEVONE. Yeah I had a problem with that but Im glad to be home where it all started for me with posting music. Love the new diggs and my favorite color. Haha! LETS GET IT POPPIN'
Sites looking cool!
i havnt been on here in a year but ive been playing guitar steady for the last 3 and i got a ton of loops i want to throw on this biiiiiatch ... cant wait !!!
It's nice to be with you again;
and to be with you
THANKS ZAPPO
I have always loved looperman, and the tweaks that have been made make a great site even better... THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!! Have got a ton of things in the pipeline which i must share with everybody....
GEORGE
I LOVE YOU LOOPERMAN - LOOPERMAN I LOVE YOU
I really do. Honest.
I like looking around and checking things out. Thank you so much for the community. It is truly AWESOME !!!
:)
... looking nice ... ive only been on here a day or two since the refurbishment & i have to say , im impressed with the changes so far ... its looking a lot more professional .
great work & big UP !!!
peace out ... Ricky D aka RJDCV3
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!
*dances on the ceiling*
oh yea the site is awesome miss it so much
i cant seem to download any loops at all just wondering if its a bug or something else
i just decided to check on looperman and its back man did I miss it. when you bored and dont have any new samples the loop comes through everytime its a great idea and Im glad its back. Great job the site looks excellent. Im getting my loops together now yeehaw!
I miss how it used to show how many folks on the site at any given time. Also I cant quite get the hang of how to "order" my tracks - when uploading it has a box to put a number in (default is 0) but seems no matter what I put in there it just kind of randomly shows up somewhere - also I am not able to download my own tunes when I go to delete them and when I do delete (to make room for something new) it takes me to an "ooops" page. Also I miss that I used to be able to jump around to different pages WHILE a song was playing - so if I was listening to someones tune and wanted to post a comment at least the song wouldnt stop the moment the new page loaded to post the comment - it's all good and I appreciate all of the work that has been put in, but honestly (for the sake of honest feedback) I actually like the old site much better and I dont spend as much time here as I used to.
its awesome!
simple and nice, two thumbs up for you
Changed my password, but can't view anything except my profile when I log in. I can view tracks and loops when I'm not logged in.
Hey Shan,
You did a hell of a job and I'm also very glad that Looperman's back online. I really missed it. Thanks for all your hard work!

Just wanted to compliment Looperman on the re-design of the site. Very easy to get around and also has a very cool new look to it.
I really missed the site while it was down but I am very happy to see it back.
Epip
I can't believe it! It's back YeeeeeeeeHaaaaaaaaa Merry funcking christmas.
@KemiOh - it means that unless you had been given automatic validation to upload loops then you can't upload them to the site at the moment.
It is temporary.
Still can't upload loops. It says "Sorry uploads are currently limited to pre authorised users only." what does that mean? and is it temporary? I have a ton of loops i want to upload.
good to have you back
Well done Shan...the site looks great!!!
shoutouts to everyone still on the loop! been a tough couple lean months and not having the loop available didn't make it any easier lol..a big thank you to shan for all he's done since day 1 of looperman and all the hard work he put into working on the new site here...
respect

man .....i missed you SO much......i was goin nuts tryin to find other sites like this.....and i have to say not only is this the best one.....its THE one.....THX
quick question, do we need to update Flash, Java or adobe for the new content?
You have no idea how happy I am to see you all again, and to see the new, streamlined site. I can't wait to get back to collab'ing with some old friends, and hopefully some new ones.
The Goose
Thanks,for the answer..that will work just fine!
Allen, thats been fixed and should now show on the tracks admin page. For now it only effects the order of tracks as shown on your profile tracks page
Hey everyone,I love the new site!
I may have overlooked this and it may have already been mentioned,if so I apologize but can we still change the order of our tracks?
Allen
Thanks for all your hard work on this. Fantastic. Very much appreciated.
Richie
finally! i sure hated being out of the loop! now, back to work. soooo...... why cant i upload a track??????????
Mannnn it feels so goood to be back!!!! The site is awesome and thanx for coming back.
Hey y'all, this is my first visit to the new and improved site, nice job Shan! I am not currently online where I just moved to. Hoping to be online soon and I'm using the public library web access right now. I apologize to everyone who has been emailing me and giving me reviews these past few weeks, I will try to respond as soon as time allows. Hoping to be online soon at the new place.
I hope everyone has been great since the loop shut down a while back. I wish I could say things in Humpville have been peachy but I can't. About 4 weeks ago I had a total meltdown of my hard drive and lost the last 6 months of songs, some I have absolutely no record of. I am back up and running and just beginning to record again. I still need to install Reason and a few vsti's but I think I'm close to being totally up and running.
Health issues have me down these days, as some of you know. Things seem to be getting figured out but it has been a long, tedious adventure and it has affected my creative process negatively but I hope to upload something new in the next few weeks.
I wish you all the best and once again a big high five to Shan for the new and improved site!
Wayne
Excellent work and glad the site is back. Thanks for all involved now time for me to get a new tune ready to show my appreciation!! Great JOB!!
Tenacious, didnt use a cms, coded by hand
It's beautiful. Excellent work. Out of curiosity, did you use a CMS or build this from the ground up? If you built it yourself, what language did you use?
Nice clean look. It's always tough to present a new & improved site given people's aversion to change. So far so good, will take a bit to get used to but I give you props for taking the time and energy to upgrade, kudos.
OMG sir I have missed your site immensely. Thank god for Xanax! Just joking, but I am so glad you're back. I have amassed some loops that I would like to share. Please let me know when that function will be open to all again.
Chris
Loving the new site design, should make a looper an app for iPad/iPhone that would be great :)
Great Site! good job Looperman ;-)
