All of our Premium Loops have .mp3 samples to listen to the entire track; this one, however, is a free loop created by Seth Haberman and available at Loop Community.

It's standard stereo loop--click left and right, because we usually run the click track live through Ableton Live, and the click is on a third isolated mono channel.

However, you'll be able to edit the .rns file, so you can just add a click track and pan everything else one way!

Hope this helps,
Nick

I think it's due to the fact that PayPal won't accept $0 transactions. Give us a little while to take a look at the issue, and we'll come up with something!

Thanks, and sorry for the inconvenience.

Hey Nathan;

Actually, most of the loops we create here are done in Reason (4 or 5). These .rns files can be edited, so you'll be able to open the Reason file and pan everything left or right. Once you do that, you can create a Redrum with a "click" sound, and just pan that track opposite of the others.

Export this new file as an .aif or .mp3, and it'll be a stereo track--click on one side, loop on the other.

However, the "recommended" way of using a loop is to create a file with 3 channels: a stereo loop on the right and left, and a click on a third channel. In order to set up your band to use this type of file, you'll need two things right off the bat: a hardware unit called an interface that can handle more than two channels simultaneously (as most PCs/laptops can't do more than L/R output), and a piece of software that can direct those channels to the right place (again, because things like iPhones/iTunes/etc. can't do this). Reason and Ableton Live can both set specific tracks to an audio interface.

In both of the aforementioned programs, you can even set up a click for each song, and it will sync up with your loop. This click can be sent to a third channel in your interface, and can then go to an IEM system or a headphone amp.

Further, if you still want to run a basic L/R setup, we'll prepare a .rns file and/or an .mp3 file for you that is set up this way. Just check out our premium loops, and send us an email with your requirements!

Hope this helps--let me know!
Thanks,
Nick

Hey Clay!

I'm sending the mp3 tonight when I get my work computer up and running at home. Thanks!

Well, a lot of times we find that way is great for a general setup, however it can be limiting in that you lose the ability to have the track in stereo (loop is mono on the left, click is mono on the right, for example). If you're running out of an iPod, that's fine, but if you really want the depth a stereo sample can provide, you'll probably want to invest in an interface that can channel three tracks: Loop in stereo (L and R), and a third track going directly to a monitor send.

We actually have a Firewire (for processing speed) interface and we use 5 output channels because our keyboardist runs GarageBand live:

Channels 1 & 2: Keyboard output (stereo)
Channels 3 & 4: Loop (stereo)
Channel 5: Click to headphone amp (mono)

Hope this helps!
Nick

Chris;

Email me--I'll send over the correct track. Thanks!

Caleb, it does include the .mp3 and .rns file, and I can include a "road map" as well if need be!

Thanks!

Checking it out now--I think most of the great new worship stuff I've found has pretty much been thanks to you, Kyle. haha, keep it coming!

Bryan!

Thanks for dropping a line here! Thanks for the props and kind words--honestly, we're just trying to keep up with you!

Keep churning out the great stuff on MyMusicWriter.com--we should collaborate sometime as well--send me an email when you get a chance!

Thanks, and take care man!
