72 Chapter 8 Using Apple Loops

The Scale Type tag identifies the file’s scale type. It only serves as a search tag and has

no effect on the sound of the loop. Changing a loop’s Scale Type does not affect the

scale of the loop. Again, this defaults to the information Logic Pro provides, courtesy of

the Signature track.

Music uses various scale types. The main types are the major and minor scales. Musical

loops in the same key (with the same root note) may not sound appropriate when

played together, if their scale type differs. As an example: A loop with a piano chord

progression in the key of D and a loop with a synth line also in the key of D, may not

sound “right” if the piano loop uses the D major scale and the synth line uses the D

minor scale.

The Scale Type menu offers the Major, Minor, Good for Both and Neither choices. The

latter option is suitable for percussive, non-pitched material. Loops that can work in

either scale are best tagged as Good for Both.

The Time Signature tag provides the following information about a loop: the number

of beats in each measure and the note lengths of the beat value. Logic Pro uses the

number of beats in a measure to display the measure and beat positions in the Bar

Ruler. This value does not affect playback. If the beat value is not set correctly, playback

is affected. The Apple Loops Utility sets the Time Signature tag to the value provided by

the Signature track in Logic. If you use loops with a different beat value, these loops are

played back at the wrong tempo. Correct the Time Signature tag, so that it indicates

the beat value correctly.

The Author and Copyright tags offer a place to name the author of a loop and

field is often used to indicate an internal file name or code number that was used

during the creation of a loop library. These three tags are not displayed in the Loop

Browser in Logic. They can not be used to search for files, and serve only as a place to

include text information. They do not affect the sound of a loop.

Search tags

These tags are used by the Search feature in the Loop Browser, allowing you to search

for files that match specific criteria.

Â Genre pop-up menu: Defines the type or style of music for which the loop is

appropriate. The list of musical genres is not editable.

Â Instrument list: Displays choices for the musical instrument or instrument category of

the file. Selecting a category in the left column displays a list of instruments/sub-

categories in the right column.

File Info

This area of the Tags pane includes rows that offer Kind, Length, Date Modified, Sample

Rate, Channels, Tempo and File Location information. This file information can only be

viewed, and cannot be edited in the Apple Loops Utility.
