Help! What happened to Music loops and beds for Audition? All I can find is this below:

Sound Effects - 27 bundles, over 10,000 high-quality sound effects

 

I need music loops to create songs, NOT a bunch of sound effects, anyone have a clue??

Thanks Kelly K.

I've just realised that the current versions of most browsers won't let you use ftp any more. Even though Firefox says it will - it simply displays nothing. All the files are still present on the ftp site, but you now have to use a dedicated ftp program to access them. This is certainly the case today - 17th November 2021


Okay - it's a year later and I've just checked - the files are all still accessible via FTP. Whilst it may still be possible to gain access via Firefox, it's not going to be easy as there are all sorts of security settings that would have to be overcome. Filezilla works, and it's free, but you have to get the settings absolutely correct. Use the user name 'anonymous' and 'pass' as the password - it will sort out the port number for you. You will have to work your way carefully through all sorts of layers to get to the correct place. To a first approximation it's pub - adobe - audition - Loops. When you finally get there, there's a ton of stuff available, but it's not in a single directory - you have to hunt it out.

'Here' doesn't work for me either.

You need to use a browser that supports FTP. Chrome definitely doesn't, but Firefox does, and it would appear that Opera does too. Alternatively, as nssc02 observes, a dedicated FTP (File Transfer Protocol) handler also does. This is old technology these days, but it used to be the norm.

Thank you! I was able to click on the links when I used the Firefox browser! I am downloading all of the loops. Now I'm going to see if I can actually use the loops in Audition! 🙂

 

Boy, Adobe sure doesn't make it easy to find Loops! Wonder why???

They haven't been present for a while now. After some digging around, I discovered that they aren't quite available as a direct easy download, but they do appear to be available on Adobe's ftp site - here 

 

I did a test download of one, and it appears to work fine. The one thing I haven't located is the music beds, but the loopology files themselves are there, definitely.

The update is that if you go further up the directory tree you reach a folder that will lead you to everything! It's here.

Thanks so much, however when I click on those links "here" you put in there, all it does is open a blank page, nothing is there??? Kelly K.
