04 / BEFORE YOU BUY

Frequently asked questions.

The system is about groove architecture, not locked-in audio loops or a required synthesizer.

Do I need REAPER or Vital?

No. REAPER and Vital were used during development, but the delivered MIDI files are DAW-agnostic. Use your own instruments and sounds.

Does the pack contain finished audio loops?

The core product is MIDI. The 12 WAV files are listening references for the groove families, not a complete audio-loop library.

Can I change the tempo or bass notes?

Yes. Transpose, revoice, edit timing and note lengths, and adapt the patterns to your project and bass instrument.

Can I use the MIDI in commercial tracks?

Yes. You may use and modify the musical ideas and MIDI in your own original commercial music. Redistributing, reselling or repackaging the product files or diagrams as a library is not allowed.

What do I receive?

108 MIDI files across 12 groove families, 12 reference WAV previews and the 28-page Pattern Field Manual. This is a one-time purchase, not a subscription.
