11. Once you choose which instrument you would like to record with, another bar will pop up with various tracks or loops for you to choose from. You can listen to each one of these by clicking on them once. These tracks will either be green (Midi tracks) or blue (Audio Tracks). To add the green loops to your song you will need to create a "Software Instrument" Track. To add the blue loops to your song you will need to create a "Real Instrument" Track. NOTE: It is important that you choose tracks that are in the same key** for example: a loop in the key of C will sound good with another loop in the key of C opposed to one in the key of D. STEP 8

13. STEP 10 To loop the track (repeat) move your mouse to the top right of the track and a circular arrow should appear. Drag the track as far to the right/left as you want ( as long or as short as you want the track to play for in your song). You should also adjusts the volume of each track according to your liking as well as how the tracks sound together.
