Loop Drummer sports over 500 loops, which are available in a variety of popular styles including Rock, Blues, Country, Metal, Funk, and more. Loops are grouped in "Style Packs" containing up to 64 different loops for each of the available styles, which are organized in 8 "songs" with 8 loops each, including intros, outros, fills, and alternate parts.

Where is Apple? Do you hear them?

Did you discover any new technology at the Macworld?
Except the iOS and some iApp, we haven't seen anything else... Why?
If we consider that Apple gives up gradually the professional market, shall we content ourselves with an iMac or with a Macbook Pro for the music?
Anyway, we hope Apple will listen to the musicians, the producers, the artists, the Graphic designers...
