Do you want audio loops created from a variety of instruments? +++ Bandlab Sounds +++ is free (you do need to provide an email and password) and has more than 10,000 15,000 loop packages available for download. I've even found some lap and pedal steel loops, how cool is that?!

Only problem is...you could spend so much time listening to the available samples that you'd never get around to making any music... 150+ Songs produced using BIAB RealTracks And 50 more... and some more...

I am just learning how to "assemble" and acidize them into a coherent musical stream. Because it is not biab related , I won't post a link, but if you are interested, I just posted my first loops creation called "House Warming" on SC. Merry Xmas to everyone. Gary.

This is why I rarely go into the loops unless I know what I'm wanting/needing. Heck, I might already have it, I have Cakewalk bandlab version. I keep telling myself I'm gonna learn it then I wind up back in Reaper cause I basically already know it. Thank you for sharing this Jim! Josie Youtube Channel Soundcloud

Otherwise, it's like jumping down the rabbit hole.

BIAB is a great product but IMHO doesn't serve this type of genre very well. If you spend some time with loops you can really create some good stuff. Just as a sample this song did 12k plays on Soundcloud, 16k on Spotify and it's ALL loops. https://soundcloud.com/henry-clarke-133416910/you-make-me-feel-so-good?si=f5e2a78359564ec69f2383b450417187&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing In all candor I did stop using Soundcloud. Just didn't work for me :-) Last edited by Henry Clarke; 12/20/21 07:32 PM.

The thought makes my mind go on tilt. Lol! Would love to do one that sounds that good if I could. Love it. Josie Youtube Channel Soundcloud

Probably even better :-) Message me telling me what type of music you want to do and I'll look at some sample packs you can browse. You may be surprised !!

Have you gotten any income from the Spotify plays? I have received mechanical and publishing royalties from Spotify, iTunes, Applemusic, Amazon Music, Deezer, Tidal, Pandora, Facebook, and YouTube, and BMI. The money is not significant so I leave it in my Tunecore account to keep building along with my other songs. I didn't intend to hijack this thread. I just wanted people to see what could be accomplished through the use of loops. If you were to view my Spotify profile 7 of my top 10 songs were created using strictly loops. All of my top songs on Pandora are loop based. I think a lot of BIAB users don't really understand the significance of using loops (like they don't understand the power of using Autotune) :-)
