Howdy Brian, After your last reply I previewed some acid musical grooves I bought from primeloops.com. The acid loops are worst than the rex2 loops when working with Sonar; the wav acid loops neither conform to the timing or key signature of my project. I am sure that the loops are acid because that’s what states in the file name after you unzip the files. In fact the file name is, “PL0106_WAV_ACID_RatioPadz” Fortunately, I obtained these same loops as rex2 and at least these loops respect the projects tempo. Do you know of a company that sells acid musical loops that do work with sonar? I have obtained loops from, Prime loops, Loop Masters, and some from Groove monkey, but most of these are .rex, .mid, and they are all drum grooves. My loop masters loop collection come from the limited selection offered in the cakewalk on-line stor, but I have recently noticed that loopmasters.com has a more up-to date and comprehensive list of loops and grooves. Iván I work more with loops and grooves to create remixes. > -------- Original Message -------- > Subject: [ddots-l] Re: Rex2 musical grooves conforming to key > signature? > From: Bryan Smart <bryansmart@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Date: Tue, June 07, 2011 7:22 am > To: "ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx" <ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > > All Acid format files are WAV, but not all WAV files are Acid. > > > > Bryan > > > > On Jun 6, 2011, at 7:07 PM, <ivanlopez@xxxxxxxxxxx> <ivanlopez@xxxxxxxxxxx> > wrote: > > > > > > > > I have a follow up question Brian, if rex2 is not acid what is?
