"Without a doubt the best drum loops available anywhere. Beta Monkey’s drum loops have not only grown along with my music, but have also led me down different musical paths I may have not taken on my own. I’ve been with Beat Monkey since the very beginning and they keep getting better and better. Keep up the great work!"

Darren Hodroski

"Thanks a ton! You are indeed a cool guy and I've always liked what I have ordered from you, so I will do more in the future! Hope you have a great week!  - Marc

"Thanks Christian. I used the loops this morning ... producing a soundtrack for an animated film "Crosswalk Man" they sound fantastic, exactly what I needed! I'll try and send you a DVD when the film is wrapped up.

Best,
Gina Kamentsky (Pixeltoon.com)

"I like your loops a lot. Ever considered doing a "just brushes" set? [maybe a mix of jazz, oldtime-ish country/blues beats and latin] I know Big Fish has a brushes disk but I bet you could do it better and cheaper.

Best,
Jonathan Pytell

(Jon, we will have a brushes disc out by October!)

"The samples arrived on Saturday. So far, I'm extremely satisfied with the product. I've almost completed one drum track, and so far, it sounds great!

Jennifer Jameson

"Got the Odd Time Meltdown CD's today - awesome, as usual!"   - Suzanne De Cree

"Thanks for the info. I am going to go ahead and grab Drumwerks 1 because I can use it elsewhere while I wait for new stuff to come out. Thanks for the info and the heads up on the new volumes. I love BetaMonkey stuff because it’s so easy to work with."

Thanks again,

Bob Leeming

"I just got the DVD today, June 26th. It was dated at 22th from the states.
I can't believe it how fast (this time) it arrived. And the sounds are awesome."

MANNYYYYY THANKSSSSS !!!!

Cheers, Tommy Ardianza (The Netherlands)

"Hi Chris. Just a quick message to say thanks. I have just received my loops and sample disks today and I am more than happy with the material on them. I am currently writing and recording an album for release on the internet, I hope it sells, fingers crossed.

I just wanted to say keep up the excellent work.

I will send you some of my work when it is finished. it might take longer than I anticipated as you have given me too much choice."

Take care mate

"HEY CHRIS Thanks for the great customer service when I had a problem with my disk!!! I love the new grooves!!!!!!! They sound AWESOME!!!!!!!"
THANKS AGAIN
MIKE MORSE

"Chris, you know most products for home studio musicians and digital computer recordings from the low end stuff even to the high end stuff pretty much suck. Their products are made to part me from my money and give me disappointing sound reproductions. The exception to the( part me from my money) rule: Beta Monkey. 100% worth every penny. In the beginning I bought Smart Loops and anything I could get my grubby hands on. __________ loops suck! Plain and simple. I wish I could have used that money to buy your whole catalog of loops. Live and learn. Anyway I'm not trying to kiss ass or suck up, I'm just tired of home studio products I purchase with my hard earned cash only to be disappointed. When you guys are huge and #1 in the business I hope you don't forget about us poor slobs sitting at home in our little studios playing and writing out guts out."

Thanks,

Dave Murray AKA Prisoner One

"Chris, I think I have 8 of your loop CDs and am looking forward to ordering more. They are just great and so easy to work with. That particular song I kind of wrote a basic drum track first and then came up with the music so it's almost like collaborating w/your drummer in that respect. It makes me think of riffs and rhythms I normally would not play ,so thank you. I am working on a CD of original and cover songs right now and the songs I use your loops on I will definitely put your website et al in the liner notes."

Regards,
Scott Seabock

"Hi Chris, I'm a fan of your products.... All the songs I have are "BETAMONKIED"! A lot of people compliment the sound of the drums in my songs. I'm a betamonkey user FOR LIFE!!!! Glad you enjoy the song."

Phillip Fernandez

"I purchased Drum Werks Vol 1 (among others) a little over a year ago; a recommendation from a close friend. He knew I was frustrated because no drum machine on the market could satisfy my desire to hear real drums on my recordings. That was the problem- BetaMonkeyMusic.com was the solution. After receiving one of your email blasts, I decided to get busy and send this song to you. It is the first song recorded for a project I am overseeing for the worship pastor of my church in Arlington, Texas, Pantego Bible Church. Along with producing the song, I personally performed the guitar, and various electric keyboard parts. As I look through your list of submitted music, I do not see any songs in the style category of Praise and Worship / Christian Contemporary, so here is one for you!"

Enjoy and thanks again,

Thank you,
Rob Hines

Look for Rob's music, along with a host of others, in the User's Music Section. He wrote some killer stuff - we were all really atekn aback by his efforts. Just top-notch all the way (not to just single Rob out because we got all types of great and varied stuff - his just was in a style we hadn't heard Beta Monkey in before!)

"Thanks for the updates! I see some ‘Odd Time Meltdown’ and ‘Rock Hard Funk’ in my future… Chris, I’ve attached a couple of short demo clips here using your loops. I didn’t do any fancy editing, so they’re probably not worthy of posting. These clips were done just to demo a guitar FX pedal I was selling on a classifieds website. Funny thing is that everybody who heard the clips responded something like this: “Yeah yeah, nice pedal. Who’s on the drums?” J I sold my pedal eventually….

As a business Chris, you’ve got the best of everything in one package: great product at reasonable prices, fantastic customer service with courtesy, humour (pardon the Canadian spelling), and a personal touch. Nice knowing there’s a real person on the other end of my emails!"

Thanks for keeping me in the loops!

Best regards,

Greg…

"I'M AN UNSIGNED ARTIST WHO WRITES, ARRANGES, PLAYS, & PERFORMS HIS OWN MATERIAL. I'M TRYING TO BREAK INTO THE MUSIC BUSINESS IN 3 DIFFERENT GENRES (R&B, HIP HOP, & INSPIRATIONAL MUSIC) I JUST REC'D MY HARD GROOVES FOR HIP HOP CD'S WHEN I WAS WRITING MY OWN VERSION OF A WEDDING SONG (A CONTEMPORARY VERSION). WELL, I WAS VERY IMPRESSED WITH THE VARIETY OF BEATS AND FOUND A COUPLE THAT COMBINED JUST RIGHT TO GIVE ME THE TWIST I WAS LOOKING FOR IN MY SONG."

"I wrote a parody song using your loops...the loops sound GREAT. It's called Rock Star."

Thanks for these!

Kimberly Streible

"Ya'll have the best drums loops on the market hands down. You rock!!!" -- Gene Ricupito

"I love Drum Werks VII... it's the best collection yet (followed by Double Bass Mania)! I think I'll use these more than all of the other collections put together (and I have almost all of them). Thanks again for getting me the disc!" -- Bill Whitney

"Thanks! I like the Beta Monkey Drums-that's why I keep coming back..I must say that DW Vll is to my ears-the best recorded set yet. They keep getting better...all the best to you all at BM. -- AJ Washington (Australia)

"Howdy Chris! Well, as usual these loops rock as good as ever. These really are great loops and I hope to send you some of the music that I've created using them. Keep up the great werk and you'll always have a loyal customer with me. Thanks again." -- Stan Torres

"Thanks, as always, for the fast service and killer loops!" -- Brian Surgi

"Hello Beta Monkey! First let me say that as with all my Beta Monkey Loops these are great! This was also the fastest shipping I think I have ever seen (ordered 3\24 received 3\27) Thank You for great loops and fantastic service." -- Dan Fruecht

"The Drum Werks VII loops sound great. They're just what I asked you for a year ago. I'm REALLY looking forward to working with these. I also think it's great of you guys using .wav files for the preview! People can download them and try them right in the context of their project. Thank you." -- Bruce Miller

"Cool... new loops. I love all the other sets I have already bought from you.... keep up the good work!!" -- Brian Halvorson

**There are many more - will get these up for our next feedback update. Until then, enjoy Drum Werks VII!

"Just want to say a big thank you to all at BetaMonkeyMusic for the loops I have purchased so far. The quality is outstanding, and the range excellent. If you want to listen to some of the tracks I have created using your loops, you can listen here:

http://www.musicfreedom.com/SWanRecordings

The tracks in question are under the artist name FearOfHatred (my death metal project ‚ so beware if this music is not your cup of tea)." -- Once again, many thanks. Steve Cowan

" Hello Chris and Seth,

Want to thank you for taking care of me on my damaged DWV1 disk. Seems over the years of drum machine and Cakewalk defaults I have become a 100 BPM rocker. So fixing my 92 and 93 BPM folders helped I am sure.

Next a compliment. I've been programming midi for 2 decades and got sick of it. Found out about looping. To be honest I ordered some here and there and I want you to know that your loops are the most seamless I have used. Makes if far easier to work with.

With your loops I can roughly assemble a song in a night. For example I spent 3 nights trying to piece together another vendors loop just so I could say I didn't waste my money. It turned into work.... not fun.

Thanks Again." -- Mike

"I'm a very happy user of various Beta Monkey music collections (Natural Grooves, Drum Werks etc). Your loops have made my music so much more alive and editing them is a breeze. I have one suggestion for you guys. You could do a special CD that is dedicated just for slow grooves (I'm talking 60bpm and less) as they're quite hard to come by. Especially I myself could sometimes have use for realistic sounding slow ballad/slow chilling-type of grooves. -- Cheers, Lauri Hakanen, Finland

"Hi Chris, Thanks for volume 3! ( The Blues) Love the loops! Finally a drum package for actual musicians! Easy to work with and the sounds are perfect! I was having a hard time finding loops that didnít sound like a disco! I play guitar, rock guitar. I needed real drums,. Now I have them! Thank you, and please, keep ëem coming!" -- Chris Jackson

"I've bought loops from you before actually, (Drum works IV and VI think) and thought they were superb. I'd really like to get some more stuff off you so if you could tell me what else I could get from your library that would be along similar lines? I had a browse of samples on your site but just couldn't make up my mind. Thanks again for your consistently excellent service!" -- Paul Morris

"These drum loops are the coolest loops I have ever bought. There is so much variety. Thank you!" -- Ben Ferris

"Just wanted to let you know I received Drum Werks I and IV last week and they are great! I'll be honest, I'm new to drum loops (I recently switched from a Korg workstation to SONAR 5), so I haven't used any other drum loops for a point of comparison. But I went with Beta Monkey based on the recommendations on the Sonar Users Forum and I'm glad I did! The drums sound great and they've opened up a whole new world to my home recordings. I'm trying to fight the temptation to go back and replace the drum machine tracks on some older recordings. I plan on ordering another CD or 2 with some different styles in the near future. Keep up the good work!" -- Dave Logan

"Love the ALT ROCK loops! I'm a new user of your product, and it has revolutionized my recording. Great job! Keep it up!" -- Steven Reisbord

"I received my order of Double Bass Mania on Friday and I haven't been able to stop assembling new tracks. The layout is incredibly easy. I'm using Garageband which is a great tool. I'm glad that you made these loops available for this program. Thanks for the quick delivery." -- Dan Luna

"It is extremely rare (I can count on one hand) that I would take the time to write any kind of a testamonial about a product. However, I just wanted to throw my 2 cents in and tell you guys that I love the loops, they sound awesome, and that I can't believe (however I'm very thankful!!) that they don't cost twice as much as they do. It makes a rank amateur such as myself sound good, and I need all the help I can get! I've recommended you to my friends." -- Earl Coy, Nevada

"Thanks for the quick response to my questions. I was just checking out the Rock Hard Funk samples. HOOLLYY CRRAAPP that guy can play!!!! Good work you guys!" -- Billy

"Thanks once more for the great service and prompt shipping! I can *ALWAYS* count on BetaMonkey to provide me with the loops I need! My custom 3 pack arrived today and I can't wait to get recording. I have a couple MP3s I want to share with you, how do I go about that?" -- PH

"I recieved the CD yesterday. You guys are obviously on the ball with regard to the demands and satisfaction of the consumer. Honestly, as I'm sure your aware, it's fairly easy to find a unique package of quality drum loops, offered at a competitive price. So, in such situations, how is a company to set themselves apart from their competition. It's blantly apparent that your company has found the simple technique which few companies use, CUSTOMER SERVICE. Consumers, including myself, are always willing to spend a few extra dollars to recieve the attention each deserves. Fortunately, I have no need to reach for those extra dollars, because companies, such as Beta Monkey, feel compelled to offer superior service without the extra cost. These are the few, the elite which offer low prices, as well, the utmost of service to each individual customer. I would definately consider Beta Monkey to be apart of this group, and because of such excellent customer service, will continue to support your company. Oh, by the way, your product is outstanding." -- Thank you, Luther Durkop

"Just wanted to say thanks for the extra loops and for taking care of this. The beats are sounding great and I hope to send you what I've done with them. I will be purchasing a 3 pack of CDs soon. Thanks again!" -- Andrew Carlson

"Chris, here's one of my original compositions that was recorded using Beta Monkey drum loops and Apple GarageBand. Your loops work seamlessly within the program and they have become invaluable tools in my writing and recording process.

Thanks again for the incredibly affordable, user friendly and great sounding products!" -- Dan Bailey, Fort Collins, Colorado

"I was writing a really heavy song and it thought there was now way your stuff could pull it off. Man... you proved me wrong. The song rocks! Thanks!" -- Jason Smith

"Hello Chris, there's no need to send them before you receive the money order, although that's great that you offered -- thanks. I'm starting a new project but there's no hury, I'm waiting for a RAM upgrade to arrive and a couple other pieces of software before I look at the new loops.

As always your loops continue to inspire me and my playing. I continue to spread the work about the best and most usable loops at the most incredible prices. Thanks also for remembering me out of the thousands of orders that have gone past your desk." -- Michael Moore-Kelly

"I've been waiting for the REX2 double bass to use with my Riffworks. I tried your starter download pack, and it kicked the ass of anything that drums on demands instant drummers had to offer. Keep up the good work." -- Phil

"I just got my first Beta Monkey CD - Double Bass Mania - and I love it. It is the best sample CD I have ever found. -- Jason Newberry

"Hey Chris, I recieved my 3 pack in the post today and I must say I`m very impressed with both the service and the quality of the loops! Everything is sitting nicely in the mix!!! They sound awesome!! I`ll definitely be coming back for more!! --Colm

"I am a guitarist from Detroit, MI, playing in the band "Downplay" and we are using many loops from Beta Monkey on our upcoming CD (release date Jan 06 - www.reelrecords.com is the site for further info and bio). Now about Beta Monkey:

I love these loops ! I own about a half dozen discs and counting. They are by far the best on the market for sound quality, and feel. Sonically, they have the right punch and dynamics to blend with any instruments and will fit perfectly in any mix. The "feel" of the grooves are spot on. They inspire your playing and really make the song. These discs capture a groove in a way no drum machine or midi drummer could ever do, because these are great drummers, great kit varieties, and beautifully recorded. I will of course, be buying more discs, but feel free to send me any freebies or new discs and I can do more demos for your consideration. (Ok enough begging). Keep it up!" -- Thanks, John Voiles

"What's up Chris? You MAY remember me, but my name's Brandon. I called about two weeks ago and made a phone order for Double Bass Mania and Drum Work's V. You also threw in Drum Works III, which I GREATLY appreciate!

My analysis? You guys, your products are what I have been looking for ever since I started recording my own music! The drum loops are clean, precise, and there's one for every little part I need! I love the fact that they are dry, uncompressed, and effect free, so that I can do all that myself and get " my own sound" off of your loops! I also enjoy the fact that crashes, fills, and grooves are all separate, so it's almost impossible to detect that the drums are being looped!

Also, should I mention that there are NO other products like this! I would much rather use Beta Monkey loop CD's and a looping software than use programs like BFD or Sample Tank! The only thing I found that could hardly even be considered as a downfall, is this: I kind of wish that the loops specified which kit was used, so that you could match them up in post. It hasn't been that hard to do, seriously, but it's just a suggestion. Anyone who has a decent recording ear can make the kits match...I just thought it would save a little time. Plus it would be good to know in case anyone asks " hey man, what kind of kit is that?" "Why, it's a Tama Superstar with Zildjian Custom A's!" ....Awww yeah!

Also Chris, you were the first example of excellent customer service I have had in a very long time. Buying ANYTHING musical is like buying a new car nowadays, but you answered the phone everytime I called, you remembered who I was, and everything you said you'd do, you did, and I also received my CD's in the time you told me. Two big-assed thumbs up to you and Beta Monkey! Are you guys ever going to experiment with Bass Guitar collections? Or maybe some synths or horns and strings and such? If so, please let me know, because I would rather buy all of my loops from Beta Monkey than M-Audio and Propellerhead!

I'm going to go sign up for your newsletter. I WILL be buying more products from you, so be expecting my call sometime. Thank you EVERYBODY at Beta Monkey!" -- A very satisfied customer and friend, Brandon Mohlis

"I'm just writing to say thanks so much for the Beta Monkey Drum Werks IV, Drume Werks V, and Alt Modern Rock Three-Pack! It came very quickly and everything was organized so well that I was able to start using it right away! I already have some songs in the making....! The drums sound so crisp and clear... yet i still have the freedom to add my own effects to them because they don't sound overly processed like loops/sounds i have used in the past. Great work guys... will be purchasing more in the future." -- Jason Garner

"Thanks very much! These have got to be the best drum tracks available...will be buying more! Cheers..." -- Garry Phillips

"I just wanted to let you guys know how happy I am that I found your site. I bought one of those smaller loop packs from the download store and I love it. I had a slight problem with the files at first, but I called your phone number and the person who helped me was both friendly and helpful. Iíve only had the loops for 1 day and I already got a nice track in the works, and the drums sound great. I plan to order at least one of the full CDs today, but Iím sure Iíll be back for more soon. Thanks again guys!" -- Dan Zarwell, Pen Station Ltd.
