I made my piano loop and now im trying to add drums to my loop, as soon as I hit the drum pad it automatically stops my loop from playing, so how can I lay down my drums over my sample?...thanks im new to this OS

you could either record your drums on a separate track... or set your track/program to polyphonic rather than mono... it should be in the manual.

i've already got it on poly and how could i record my drums and snares on 2 different tracks and merge them after?...

Just change the track and record them separately.... Once you create a song you can merge them... ( I am new and still learning, so I may not be putting this into the right words)...

When you change the track and press play/rec, you should still hear the original loop playing.

i've tried that as well, as soon as I hit my drum it automatically stops playing my loop, even if I record them on different tracks....Im also just running JJ OS Version 3.08, I just wanted to try it out so could that also be the problem why it dosen't work?..

are all the samples in the same program? in that case, make sure that theyre not muting eachother. check the mono/poly status in the upper right corner, not just the one for each pad..
