Thanks to @Bluefruit @lemmy.world for the icon and banner!

Discussion of and questions about Loops should go over in !loops@lemmy.world

If the loop you're posting isn't original content uploaded by the creator, prefix the title with ♻️ or [R] (if you don't feel like typing an emoji) for "reposted". For example, ♻️ Cute dog or [R] Cute dog.

Note that some loopers upload their loops to multiple platforms including Loops, so you might see insta/tiktok logos on videos that aren't marked as reposts.

If you know the source for a loop marked ♻️/[R], please comment with it!

Rules:

  1. Don't be a dick
  2. Don't make me add more rules

The needle should but hardly any weight on it. If it did, the records would wear out faster

Unless you're a DJ. In which case you want to have a little extra pressure on to keep the needle from skipping while manipulating the record.

Most DJs are digital these days, anyway, so you don't have to worry about wear because there's no actual music on a timecode record. They contain nothing more than digital signal so that the DJ software knows where you are in the song. When it wears out, simply replace it with another one.
