Working with Drumloops; How do you treat yours in mixing?

Hey guys,
I just bought the disc from www.sessionloops.com with all the various musical drum styles "You Too 90's" "Slow Floyd", etc. I really like them! They sound great and are cheap compared to alot of other companies...
Anyway, if anyone else is dealing with drum loops...how do you treat them? Do you leave them un-eq'd? I am assuming alot of eq'in was done when the drum tracks were recorded originally.....do you add additional eq'in and compression to these loops?
Any information would be amazing! Share your stories with me please

Thanks, both of you for your answers.....the type of
loops I bought, I am unable to seperate the eq for Hi
Hats or Kick Drum.....because its one continous .aiff
file of the loop (verse, chorus, etc.)
Or, can I still accentuate certain parts of the drum
(hi-hat, kick drum) by fiddlin' with different
frequencies?
Yeah try some of the GB EQ's from the menu, often they work well and give you just enough for what you need.
Such as the settings:
"Add Fullness To Snare" or "Add Brightness" Or "Add Sharpness" or the like for Hi hat or snare EQ.
Also:
"Enhance Bass Drum" Or "Big Drum" that kind of EQ Preset for more impact.
These presets will help you enhance the areas you need. As your sonic perception for EQ becomes more sophisticated you can move on to more advance EQ devices. But these presets should be pretty good!

    To add to sig's reply, "calibrating" does not calibrate Lithiu-Ion batteries, it calibrates the charge reporting circuitry.  If you look at the effect of deep discharging Lithium-Ion batteries in the data from the independent test group, Battery University, you will see that doing so shortens the life of the battery significantly. It looks like an optimum balance between use and life is at a discharge level of 50%.

  • How do you check your dedicated GPU is working?

    How do you check your dedicated GPU is working?
    Some strange things have been happening since my MBP (2009, SSD, 8GB, 17") was updated to Lion:
    1. Icon images load slower than usual, e.g when opening the applications folder the images take a fraction longer than would be normal
    2. If re-naming a folder, you see the new title, then the old one, then it switched back to the new one.
    3. When playing HD video, or rapid desktop switching the picture looks split in two.
    I checked that my GPU was on dedicated, but it had changed back to Intel integrated? Then a re-start and I checked it was on dedicated GPU, which it was BUT the above problems still remain.
    Plugged in a 24" LED Display via display port and it does not come on - only the USB ports work. Does a display need a dedicated GPU to work?
    Zapped Parameter Ram, rebuild permissions, and reset SMC all to no avail. Techtools pro 6.0 finds both cards but can't check them. I assume its not Lion compatible yet?
    MBP is still under Apple Care, but I want to know if I can identify the problem is the NVIDA GPU. But how?

    Yes, it indeed boggles the mind.  I'm of course referring to the fact that your post concerns Verizon Wireless products and services.  This forum is dedicated exclusively to Verizon Communications services.   As you probably know, Verizon Wireless and Verizon Communications operate as separate companies.
    If you need help for a Verizon wireless product or service, it's best to direct questions to the Verizon Wireless forums.  You can reach them by clicking on "Wireless" (either here or at the top of the page).
    Good luck and I sincerely hope you get your issue resolved.
