Composing with loops

Hi As a novice user I am just learning to compose using loops.
 
Using markers for the chord progressions works a treat but I dont know how to add a marker for a minor chord change.
 
Could anyone please advise on this please. I may not have the concept right so please excuse that
 
Thank you

    Hello daly,  If I understand your question correctly, you are using audio loops as opposed to midi loops, to construct a musical section..  You are using the markers to change the pitch of the loop to the chord that you want.  Is that correct ?   If so, then you can't change a major chord loop into a minor chord loop (at least I know of no easy way).  You need to find another loop that fits with the style you need that is based on a minor chord and switch to it when you need minor chords.  You can use this loop for the different minor chords that you may need.  Many loop disks will contain loops for major, minor and sometimes dominant seventh chords , all played in the same style.  Hopefully this is the information you're after.  Good luck.
