+Title: Loopp 1.3 released
+Date: 03.11.2019
+Authors: Georg Krause
+Summary: The initial release of Loopp, version 1.3, is out!
+
+## Loopp 1.3 released
+
+Today there is a new tag in the git repository: Version 1.3 of Loopp is out.
+Besides the fact that it is the first stable release of this fork, there are 
+exciting news: Long wished features are implemented and bugs fixed. Let me introduce
+the two big new features:
+
+### Free Record Mode
+
+The first new record mode enables you to record the first clip in the session without grid. 
+When recording is finished, Loopp will automatically change its playback speed so you can start looping 
+what you have in mind without getting distracted by tapping the tempo first (Which is of course still 
+possible!). To implement this it was necessary to allow BPMs with decimal numbers, so this is a little 
+extra here ;)
+
+### Auto Stop Recording
+
+Remember all the time you wanted to stop the recording of a new loop while playing your instrument with
+both hands, which makes it almost impossible? Well, Loopp allows you to specify the length of the clips 
+you will record in advance and will automatically stop the recording at the right time.
+
+## Future development
+
+The next tasks on the list are other bar measures and improving and fixing the sync. In the background
+there will be a lot of refactoring, this might also bring a headless mode.
