This forum was intended as a test forum to see how many people were interested and would use it - it seems that all but one or two of you are not able to contribute. Shall I close it down?

Nah! I am living in hope that there are some killer loops going to be put in here... but alas...

Absolutley. I reckon it should be a rerequisite of people being on here. They must upload a loop! (a useful one of course)

- the stuff I've posted was intended thus:

a - if you have nothing else to play along with, drum machine, that bloke Phil Allgaps that hangs around other musicians...etc this might do until something better comes along
b - a starting point from which new rhythm's can emerge..
and 3 - genuine 'feels' (albeit only for however many beats/bars in the loop) played by original funky drummers - most of the stuff is from the 70's - it will improve the groove but is no replacement for Phil.

I liked musematts line over the 'Scorpio' break...

Perhaps a competition might get a bit of interest going - pick a loop; record a lick; post your efforts; vote; win a basschat t-shirt...?

just MTCW

BTW the letter b keeps going uppercase and turning into a smiley when I put a ) next to it - is that supposed to happen?

I'm sure Ped is open to any and all suggestions and won't be offended. As one of the few people contributing to support this forum I think I've earned my two cents worth ;-) leave it up!

[quote name='MythSte' post='374494' date='Jan 8 2009, 09:52 PM']Okay, im gonna get cracking on a few now.

Im just going to keep them as drum loops and make them a bit longer, it annoyed me for hours trying to work out how to loop the small clips![/quote]

which ones were you having a problem with? I'm going to be posting more so if there's something in particular let me know.

ttfn

no dont...
ive been muddling along with some books and really finding it hard. i read a thread on here earlier today saying to play music in the background so i tried it this morning using one of the funk samples. after a few slow starts i remembered where the fingers go and finally got the metronome from 80 to 120bpm. whilst it is probably not what the samples are for it helped me. oh and i am not moving like an automaton now either the head is bobbing and the foot is tapping :)
many thanks
off now to thank the sample poster
