As far as cubase goes, you are going to want a drum soft synth or sampler to make the loops. It is possible to make them on the Indigo, but it would be easier to sample the indigo and use a dedicated unit to put it together into a drum sequence or loops. Look around and try some demo versions of software to see what you like. Use www.synthzone.com for references.

Ok... do you think I can use cubase with a good result? Actually I was thinking about a drum machine and you gave me some good tips about that. But I'm going to figure out how it would work with the indigo and a sequencer if that's a possibility.

Machinedrum is really nice not only for drums, its great for fx, synthesizer sounds, blipp & blopps, and as a hardware sequencer.. When i had mine i used it as a hardware sequencer for my PAiA 9700s + microKORG.

And its not your regular TR909/TR808 either. Infact it doesnt even contains any of those sounds (not even if you tried you couldnt get TR909 sounds from it)

That is a lovely kick in the first sample track, it hits hard. Mmm.
