cutting up loops

[anx]

i have heard of people taking parts from a loop for example;

in soundforge you select the very start of the kick drum to right before the start of the next kickdrum, use that as a sample and turn it into 1 bar to get a tracky effect

u can still reconize a bit of the loop but it is real cut up so it is more difficult to reconize

what do u think of that?

it sounds real cool if u do it with one of your own loops in part of your track, i have noticed lawrie immersion uses it in alot of his pounding grooves tracks

I personally like making my own loops from my own loops. It depends on what kinda stuff you're doing and what you're working w/.

I like how it sounds.

It's a technique that can work, but you have to be careful when doing it because sometimes it sounds too choppy.
