They are used during music production in order to, when combined with other music components, produce something that people might enjoy listening. Let’s see how to mix loops with this free loop mixer.
How to Mix Loops with LoopJam?
As soon as you run LoopJam it’s gonna start playing right away one of the loops that comes packed with this free loop mixing software. To load loops from your personal collection, click on the load button and then select the loop that you want to use.
To manually mix a loop the only thing that you need to do is rearrange the white rectangle in the middle of the screen by clicking on the empty fields. Each one of these fields are gonna activate the corresponding effect on the left and it’s only gonna activate for that particular loop slice. As we said there’s a total of 16 slices available for editing.
Automatic loop mixing is also possible. Top left corner of the window holds the Jam button. Clicking on that button will rearrange the rectangles in the middle in a random order. Automatic mixing can be repeated unlimited number of times. When you’re done click on Export and save the newly create unique loop.
