Forum: General Discussion - Topic: Could someone please tell me how to use the "loop" function? Please

I have been playing around with the "loop" (short cut on keyboard is L).

I dont really understand what the purpose of this function is? Could you guys please explain how to use it, the function of it and what the benifits are?


Thanks

I think it just gets you back to the cue point. If you want to have a loop effect, you have to press 'L' in sync.

.....and could all you pro DJ's out there explain what the pupose of this is and how would you apply this to a mix!

SWEET!

Using it in conjunction with a crossfader (providing you use an external mixer) is recommended. That way you can basically use it as some sort of sampler, sending a part of track over a playing beat.

It's an effective way to change between genres which can not be mixed as such, but which have similar/identical tempos.

E.g. when you have a song (Dance/House) with a strong beat, try with a rock song (like Kiss, or something) and send the melody over the playing beat. Gives some good transition possibilities.
