I see SO many loops kits you can buy, drums, synths, bassline, percussion etc. And some of em sound so good, such high quality.
I am wondering how common it is for artists to use these loops in their songs. In psytrance and other styles. I am speaking more about synth and bass loops, rather than drum loops. Is it common practice?
Thanks

I never use synth or bass loops, but I'm sure it's possible to rearrange them instead of keeping them as they are in the track - and it might work pretty well.

I sometimes re-arrange my own recorded material...
It works pretty well...i can do things with it my synths can't do...reversing for example....
But i'd never go for a synth-loop I didn't create myself... |

Same here... I always make loops from the sounds I got from my synth. Sometimes I use a sequence or similar sequence using the same sound. Works great if you stick to the same bpm. But synthloops from samplecd's? No, the chance that they sound the way I want them to sound is practically 0. If you re-use your own loops you can do fun things with them like PsYx said: reverse them, put them an octave lower (good for soundscapes) |

synth fx, drumloops and swirls is very common that ppl use some from sample CD's.
But synth and bass loops i think is rare in the trance scene.
Most other electronic dance music it's quite common to use a lot of loops.

I personally use samples for percussion parts and sometimes i sample speeches from movies.
There are a lot of artists who use samples in other ways. Some original, some not much. I, for instance would never use synth line sample or something like that.

I never use premade loops.
Make it all myself.

I don't use bass loops or synth loops unless I made the loop myself. I use drum loops till the cows come home, and I can turn a drum loop into a synthloop, but I couldn't see myself using a synthloop from a sample cd...

Thanks guys that's what I thought.
I make music for advertising purposes and use all kinds of loops, but since there are soo many house and trance and tecnho melodic loops on the market I am wondering who in the real music industry might use them. I figure percussive loops were used and tweeked widley

It is very common. First examples that comes in my mind:
Ace Ventura - Judo Chop: final riff is a loop from Venceance Essential Clubsound vol.3
Ace Ventura - Connected: the melodic leads are midi taken from the DMS pack called Nuborn Psytrance Leads
