Mixloops consisting of Drums and Percussion, or Percussion sections in various combinations, offer instant gratification. Latin Groove Factory even includes special Salsa mixes that represent the typical way the percussion instruments are arranged, played, recorded, and mixed in Salsa music today. The brave of heart can go straight to the individual loops of single instruments or to the drum kits and build their own personal combination of Latin grooves.

Each Latin Groove Factory Volume contains a set of multi-velocity samples of all the instruments used in that volume. These samples can be used to play fills that match the grooves, or to create your own new grooves.
