I made this tutorial for a friend, but I think it could be useful here, as well.

Say you found an awesome loop, but it doesn't sound like any of the other loops you have. How can you make that one loop go further and also keep it fresh? By slicing it up, of course!

Here's a technique to enable you to turn one loop into 10. Obviously, this works best with loops that have lots of variation in them, like breakbeats.

I hope someone finds it useful!
