Remotely operable bypass loop device and system

摘要

A remotely operable bypass loop device and system includes a bypass loop device having a wireless communication unit for communicating with a smartphone or other electronic device running a looper application. The bypass loop device includes an input for a musical instrument, an audio output, and a plurality of sound effect interfaces. Each of the sound effect interfaces communicate with an internal relay and control switch to form sound loops. The looper App generates a virtual representation of the bypass loop device, and functions to selectively engage and disengage sound loops based upon a user input to the App.
