Thank you for version 3 - very good !  

Feature request - Would be really really nice to be able to play the sample 100 % with the crank (and not just control the speed).  Also, would be nice to be able to drop mp3 samples via usb. 

Thank you :)

I did try implementing a scrub control with the crank but it’s just not possible with the way the Lua audio API works in Playdate. TapeLooper would need to be rewritten in C to do that I think, not an easy task.

I know there’s a music box app for Playdate that does work with the crank, but that’s triggering samples as you turn - much simpler than dealing with sample frames in a file/buffer.

understood - and you are at the forefront of music creation on the playdate. I was asking because I saw a pedal that could play a sequence with a rotary dial on a cassette and I realized that the play date could do same thing !  Thanks for your reply - appreciated :)
