... play a song?

You can click on any icon in the matched or related strips, or click on the play button underneath the currently selected song

... do a slider search?

Use the sliders to set the mood, speed, volume or sound YOU want!

If you're after downbeat and melancholy slide the "mood" slider down towards the minus sign - if you want an upbeat sound slide towards the plus sign! It's so simple to find the mood and melodies you want! You can hold down shift if you would like to combine different sliders together, for example, you can slide speed to its uppermost setting and then, whilst holding shift, drag the volume slider to its maxium - the results will be LOUD and FAST!

... use songs in iWork and other apps like iMovie?

Clicking on the iTunes button is the best way to integrate a Baboom Beats song with other applications, such as iMovie. When a song is added to iTunes it becomes available to applications that use the media browser. Alternatively you can press the save button next to the currently selected song and save the song to a folder.

... search for a particular style, instrument?

In the search panel you can either type in a text search or click on the buttons below the text field. When you click on one of these buttons you will see a selectable list of items or a selection of style icons. Click an item to do a search based on the selection. For example, you could select instruments and click piano. All the songs with piano in them will be shown in the matched strip.

... increase the length of a song?

In the loop panel you can increase the duration of a song simple by typing in how many times you want the song (or loop selection) to repeat. When you increase the value you will see that the songs duration increases. When you click the export button the song will be exported with the new length. So if you need music that lasts for 1½ minutes but the song you selected only lasts for 30 seconds, simply increase the number of loops to 3.
