What are loops ?
Loops are sound samples in WAV and MP3 formats, which can be used to create music. A loop can be a musical pattern, designed to be duplicated over and over simulating a
musician playing, or a one-shot sound. Loops have a set of defined attributes including tempo, tone, mode, number of beats, etc... to be easily identified and inserted in a song.
Examples of loops : a drum pattern, a bass line, a guitar riff, a human voice, a synth effect, a sax line.
Loops are grouped and purchased by music style sets :
Music style sets
A music style set is a set of loops
in a given music style, recorded by musicians for DSP. It includes melodic parts, rhythmic parts, chords, solos, etc... in one or several tempo(s). Loops contained in a music style set can be easily assembled together
to make a piece of music, but they may also be used independently.
