Speaking of Acid loops-and this may be classified as "pipe dream"-but who is to say that we, the loyal and close-knit constituents of the Loopers' Delight mailing list couldn't produce our own sample/loop disc? Among us are a staggering variety of sonic alchemists, encompassing the melodic, harmonic, rhythmic and none-of-the-above-ic. I've been dwelling on this idea for a while. Though I don't know if I am truly the one with the resources to pull it off, it seems to me that we could start simply by setting up an auditioning period in which only the recording quality of the submissions is evaluated. Then begin classifying the loops into categories as best we can. Then evaluate by panel for final inclusion. Then master and format for Acid. Lotsa work, but I'd love to participate in it, not only as a contributor, but as an engineer/producer/manager/whateverpieceofthepieIcangetaholdof capacity. Cool idea, but then again, I'm a Pisces.

We have not really advertised them, so they are not well known, but they are very high quality. http://www.cakewalk.com/Products/LP/Loops.html Here's my take on each collection: The Loops of Hazzard collection is pretty cool & unique. It's a collection of country string loops (lap steel, steel guitar, bass and electric guitar loops) performed by sidemen for Brooks and Dunn, Shania Twain and Dolly Parton. We have two collections from X-MiX, Vol 1 is hip hop and dance loops, Vol 2 is Progressive House and Trance. X-MiX produces a good percentage of major label remixes, and Vol 2 features loops by Armand Van Helden. All very useable if you're looking for these styles of music. In Your Face FX has a decent selection of sound effects that are well recorded. Rockit Fuel is a collection of Bass, Guitar and Drum loops in popular styles. The drum loops are great for straight ahead music. ProSamples is a sampling from the ProSamples series by East West, Zero-G and Best Service. You get a lot of different loops from all different styles. These companies put their best foot forward with this disc. Let me know if you have any questions.
