Instruō's dual looper in 20 HP, inspired by early tape: two identical decks, each recording up to ten minutes through an analogue input stage that adds slight compression, filtering and saturation, with varispeed SPEED (stalled at noon, reversed to the left), LENGTH and START, RETRIG, a clock output whose divisions TIME sets, and the capacitive tape reels to warble or stall a loop. The decks feed each other, LINK makes the right one follow the left, and the AUX I and AUX O crossfaders share an input and mix an output between them.
