    Incredibox is a neat web-based app where seven loops at a time are available for students to use at a time. They may remove and add loops at any point, and there are unlocked special content available for certain combinations. This makes it seem like a game. Students can share their compositions, but unfortunately cannot download it without paying. Regardless, this is a fun activity where all the loops sound good-no matter what the combination.
