What is the average length of the loops?

While there are several short (2 beat to 2 bar) sections such as intros and fills in each song, most sections are 8 or 16 bars.

Can I change tempos?

If the host program lets you do time stretching (which most do), you can also change the tempo of the tracks. Just be sure to select all tracks for stretching/compressing. Different host applications will yield different results, but in most cases, you can achieve a decent range in tempo change before audible artifacts begin to appear. Consult your host application docs for instructions.

 Can I use these loops with Acid?

Yes, but if you want to use our non Acidize products in more than one Acid session/song, you'll need to drop in your own markers. This is easy to do - please consult your manual for instructions.

Can I tune the drums?

As these are simply audio files, you can manipulate each track independently in any way that your sequencer/host software will allow. Keep in mind that the quality of the results is a function of the host application.
