Hard Dance – faster than the trance beats with more aggressive mix processing and rhythm programming.
Trance – featuring cleaner beats with generally straight rhythms.
Progressive, Tribal, House – these beats range in style from tribal house and progressive to minimal and tech house. Generally, they are slower and less aggressive than the above, featuring less generic programming and processing.
Techy – beats ranging from tough German- and Italian-style techno to electro-tech and retro. Perfect for users who prefer a more percussive foundation to their tracks.
Dance – slightly dirtier than the trance beats. Many of these loops are reminiscent of mid-'90s dance music. Rhythms typically feature heavy swing with a "vivace" feel.
