FAQ
The Loops Stage is an interactive music creation system that lets music lovers build real songs by placing character-based music loops onto a physical stage. Each character represents a musical part like drums, bass, melody, or vocals, and the music plays instantly as you create.
The Loops Stage is a creative music system designed for play, expression, and real musical results. It delivers high quality, professional grade audio and real time responsiveness, far beyond what is typically expected from a toy.
The Loops Stage is recommended for music lovers ages 6 and up.
Kids can jump in instantly with no prior musical knowledge, while teens and adults enjoy experimenting, layering, and creating more complex tracks. The experience grows with the user, offering simple fun at first and deeper musical exploration over time.
No musical experience is needed. The system is designed so everything always sounds good together. Users can focus on creativity, rhythm, and expression without learning notes or theory.
Yes. The Loops Stage requires the free Loops Lab app to function.
A smart device (phone or tablet) must be connected, and the app must remain open in the foreground during play.
While the screen does not need to be actively used during music creation, it cannot be turned off or closed.
This is best described as a screen-light experience, not screen-free.
The Loops Stage works with iOS and Android devices only.
The Loops Lab app is not currently supported on Amazon Fire tablets. Please make sure you have a compatible iOS or Android phone or tablet before purchasing.
All sound is generated by the Loops Lab app, not by the physical stage itself.
You can enjoy the music in three ways:
- Through the smart device’s built-in speaker
- By connecting headphones to the smart device (wired or Bluetooth)
- By connecting an external speaker to the smart device (wired or Bluetooth)
For the richest, most immersive sound, we recommend using headphones or an external speaker.
