what I do is while I am browsing loops, I copy the one I am currently on if I like it with command c. Then, I just press command v right where I am in the song. If you press play you will hear where you are in the song, and where ever you press command v, that's where the loop will drop. You can use left and right arrows to get to where you want in the song, then just paste away. I will try this other way though.
