I thought that 1,000 "loops" were to come with BIAB/RB 2021.

Question 1: Are these in BIAB or in RB or both?

Question 2: And, how can I find them and put them on a track?

I've looked in "Styles" and searched for the word "loop" but only had 20 +/- hits.

Question 3: Are these "loops" wav files or seq files?

Thanks for any help.
Loops are a subfolder under RealTracks.

Each loop has one audio file and two support files.

One way to select a loop is to (a) right click on a mixer track space to open a sub menu then (b) choose the "Select a Loop for this track []" option.

This opens a "Pick A Loop" window.

There's also a Loops button in the Tracks toolbar that'll bring up the Loops Dialog window:

Darn Simon, I knew there had to be an easier way to get to them! smile

One extra serious comment; any third party content has to be inside the Loops folder before the "Pick A Loop" window will display it.
As I was learning RealBand it took me a bit to figgur out that the "mixer" you were referencing was in BIAB.

I also found out that with RealBand... While looking at the Tracks View...
I could...
- select all or part of a track
- Right Click
- Click Generate
- Click Select and Generate Loops

Either way... it looks like most of the loops are drums or bass...

I was looking for some loops that could be used to make a unique arrangement...
like you might find in my very old copy of Sony Acid Pro 7.0. (Now owned by Magix)

Maybe they are there and I just need to dig a little deeper.

Regardless of the loops I'm happy so far with my 2021 BIAB/RB package.

Thanks for the help Guys.
You're very welcome Will, glad to help!
