the mpc is a "sampler" so yes it does work with loops (kinda) and yes you can also use piano loops but it is a "sampler" so you need to put sounds in to get sounds out or make loops go on youtube and check out a few videos so you can better understand (i am only guessing from the wording of your question and that you are a new member that you do not understand what i mean... so i hope i am not offending you your intelligence in any way)

CAUTION these videos are not of the 1000 but the 500:

these videos just shows different ways to get samples (sounds) into the mpc

:) please let me know if this helps you out in any way :)
