4 loops can be played at the same time in one instance of reaktor.

You can change the amount of starting points / slices up to 64 and you can choose where to layout these on your keyboard by defining the base notes.

The instrument comes with 363 beat, chord, percussion, bass and music loops so you can directly create Deep House / Deep Tech or Minimal tracks. But Loop rework is good for other genres too as you can import up to 500 of your own loops as well.

Other than for the production of multiple genres, Loop Rework is also perfect for making remixes.
