Loopy Pro x Inkie | Artist Spotlight

Inkie is one of most original voices in looping and beatbox. World-class performer, innovator, and long-time member of Swiss Beatbox crew, he’s been pushing art form so far scene had to invent new “producer” category just to contain him. He’s also been part of Loopy Pro story from very beginning, and has continued to blow mind ever since. In this deep-dive conversation, Inkie takes us through his journey: from discovering beatbox through Police Academy and Fruity Loops, to becoming Russia’s Looping Champion and placing second at World Championships in Berlin. We talk about how he built his signature “Keep it Strange” performance, his discovery of Line 6 Helix (which went on to become scene standard) and how Loopy Pro transformed his creative world. He walks us through his evolving workflow: from RC-505 to all-iPad setup powered by Loopy Pro, two iPads, keyboard and drum pad, showing how he constructs both his compositional looping and freestyle looping systems. Along way, he shares gold for live artists: managing CPU and thermal issues on iPads, building reactive templates, designing tactile setups and why retrospective recording changed everything.
