Why don't apple loops and Garage band loops open in MK5v2?

Post by zandurian »

I was really surprised when Mk5 wouldn't open them. Suggestions?

Also - was is the best source to purchase rex drum and perc loops?

Are the loops in CAF format? If so try converting to AIFF or WAV.

UVI Workstation can also load CAF Apple Loops.

What carrythebanner said.

Go get UVI Workstation. It's free. It reads Apple/GB loops and lets you drag and drop them onto tracks in DP's Track Overview. Get it here:
