In that case i mentioned 10 since the name changed and in case someone using 10 was following the conversation they would know what wer talking about. If memory serves correct you should be able to see atleast the names of the files in the region list and using a drag and drop method documented on here drag files onto the tracks you need. However like i said you can import the files like you would normally and copy and paste and etc to build your backing track from the loop files. To make this work well though it helps if the Project is already set to the tempo of the loops you will be using. - T.O.M
