How can I get a "soundpool" from the outside?

Hi. I recently got some sound samples from a site called "Cymatics" and I want to work on these samples through "music maker." Is there any way I can get these things right and use them? I tried putting the samples into the "sound pool" folder of the existing "music maker" but they were not printed within the "music maker." I hope. I hope you can solve this problem and work on the song soon. Please help me.

In what format are the audio files from Cymatics?

Hi there,

You'll have to distinguish as to what you really want to accomplish here. If you want the loops to show up in the soundpool manager ("Loops" tab) in Music Maker, that's probably not going to happen. A construction kit of loops would have to abide by some very specific standards, as far as the structure and nomenclature of the folders and files is concerned, to be treated like a MAGIX soundpool by Music Maker. Sure, it's possible to mimic this structure and craft your own MAGIX soundpools, but it's questionable whether this will make sense and work properly for most third-party loop constructions kits that you can find out there.

Will you be able to use the third-party loops in Music Maker at all? Most likely, yes. They just have to be in a suitable file format that's supported by Music Maker (e.g. WAV, OGG Vorbis, MP3). For MP3 files, you'd need to have the "More tracks & formats" feature pack unlocked to get them imported. I recommend handling those third-party loops via the built-in "File Manager" tab or your Windows file browser.

Hope this helps!

Thank you so much, I just got some midi packs and wavs from producer spot and tried to add them to sound pools and it was only picking up the snare drums for whatever reason. With the file manager tab I can use everything I have, I really appreciate you saving me a support ticket!
