Yes so it seems like you made it yourself. But the similarity is identical so i was still right assuming it was a VEC loop.
And you have already proven what an arrogant douche you are so i dont see how this is gonna save face at all for you.

Actually it sounds like he threw the VEc loop into a beat he made. TBH

Yes it does fucking actually.
There is no way Cryophonic that you made this loop.. and that u actually sit here and directly lying about it. It seems to me that you actually believe you made it... guess the best lies are the ones you believe in yourself.

You are lying so everyone can/hear see it, and still manage to have a cocky attitude about it.

And i was stupid enough to think that there was a chance you had accidentally made it. Because i would have never thought anyone would lie about something like this so blatantly.

And you can save your insults, been playing Counter Strike enough to be total immune against kids raging in the chat.

You are a liar, and u never ever considered the fact that it could have been made accidentally. That would have been your way out.

I haven't listened to the sound examples yet (I'm at work), so I don't know how similar they are.

From my perspective, if there's a particular percussive feel I'm looking for and a loop provides it, I'll use the loop. It's such a small part of the overall sound (I use samples for the main percussive elements), and if I put the effort in to build the loop myself there's a chance it won't sound any different overall, in the context of the mix.

There are times when I do create loops, because I'm fairly sure my loop libraries don't contain what I'm after.

From my perspective, it's such a small part of the big picture that if someone mistook one of the loops I created for a Vengeance loop, I'd deny it, but I'd have to concede that many loops sound very similar - they're just hihat/clap/percussive patterns. Creating a loop that is truly unique and instantly recognisable is hard. And may not be required, if it's supposed to just add to what's happening without drawing attention to itself.

We all have our own viewpoints on what we will and won't do in our productions. As long as we're aware that they are only our viewpoints, and not "the truth", we'll retain an open mind.

For a direct comparison, here is a single file with the VEC loop followed by the relevant portion of Cryophonik's loop, with the volume of the two roughly equal:

True. But the thing is, the loops in question both have a couple pitched sounds in them that are pretty clearly recognizable, and they're even panned in the exact same way in both loops.

I don't care if people use loops either, but it's pretty silly and dishonest to deny it if you do...

Thank you! there is clearly no doubt that this comes from Vengeance Essential House 2, the loop is in Percussive Loops and is named VEH2 Percussive Loops - 057

Does anyone care ? not me, i only recognised it cause i used it in one of my tracks.

Oh and:

Wrong again. The percussion is very similar, I'll grant you that, but mine was made by layering two percussion patterns in Stylus RMX. I'll also grant you that this is sorta a loop - although I edited the rex file to fit my pattern. Listen to the pitch of the congas - mine's higher. The pattern of the lower percussion is also different. Would you like a screen shot to prove you wrong again?

Edit: screw it, it's easy to just post it and show you:

The funny thing is, I have no problem with using loops either and I could probably point you to dozens of places that I've consistently said that. And, yes, I have layered some of the Vengeance percussion loops in many of my songs, but I don't think I've ever used one of their straight drum loops simply because they're pretty inflexible and that's not the way I work. What I do have a problem with is people who know absolutely nothing about my workflow accusing me of using loops when it's obvious that I didn't. Yes, you can look through my entire library of house/trance tracks and find patterns/sounds that are similar to the Vengeance loops, because, guess what - I already told you that I use their single shots. You start layering their sounds in something as simple as a 4/floor pattern and you're bound to find something similar. I may not be the most original drum programmer, but I do sequence my own patterns most of the time. And, think about it, what the hell do I have to gain by lying about it? It's pretty ridiculous that I even have to defend myself against these baseless accusations.

This thread could use a dash of self esteem.
