Hey there.

Sorry for the basic/noob question but...

I've dabbled in audio production over the past few years, but merely as a hobby, not a professional.

I've messed with things such as FL and find it quite easy to set up an electronic drum/snare/hat/shaker loop that sounds good. The samples seem to be good to go out of the bag.

I've got Sonar 8.5 Producer, and while I know there are tons of quality samples, I find it hard setting up a simple loop that sounds great without what seems like too much tweaking with audio FX.

I know Session Drummer is great, but most of the sounds are way too acoustic-y for what I'm looking for.

What do Sonar users typically use to set up nice deep house loops?
 
Thanks!
