Using RF Commercial Sample Loops In Library Productions

[hubcatParticipant]

I was wondering if anybody had any thoughts in general about using RF loops in library productions. I know some companies don’t like them but the practice is so prevalent in popular music in general that I was curious if that was changing. I recently came across a package of solo trumpet loops at Loopmasters that could be very useful but I don’t want to waste my time if they are still widely frowned upon.

I recently used some great harmonica licks, from Loopmasters, in a track.

Just make sure they are not in the clear and use judiciously.

Hi Art, thanks for your input. One more question. When you say “make sure they are not in the clear” do you mean a passage where just the loop is playing by itself so it could be reused on it’s own?

I’d like clarity on “not in the clear also”? And what about changing the key and slowing the loop down? Thanks

Yes.

You could change the key and/or slow it down but it would still be against their EULA (End User License Agreement) to leave in the clear.
