                           INTRODUCTION TO LOOPS IN MUSIC PRODUCTION

                 Loops are short, repeating sections of music that can be layered to create full compositions. They
                 are commonly used in electronic, hip-hop, and pop music production to build rhythm and melody
                 without needing live instrument recording.


                 TYPES OF LOOPS

                     Drum Loops: Pre-recorded drum patterns that provide the beat of the song.
                     Bass Loops: Repetitive low-frequency rhythms that add depth and groove.

                     Melody Loops: Short  instrumental  phrases (guitar,  piano,  synth) that  create  the  musical
                     theme.
                     Vocal Loops: Pre-recorded vocal phrases or effects.




                           GETTING STARTED WITH LOOPS IN A DAW

                 A Digital Audio Workstation (DAW), such as BandLab or GarageBand, allows users to access a
                 loop library, arrange different sounds, and create a complete track.
