You can also go further in chopping up the loop in a slicer and adding effects. A little light flange with long sweep will provide interest in the loop without being too obvious.
Jesus I posted this a year and a half ago!

RE: Frequencies the other track. Best way to find which freq's to remove is to use an eq plugin and scan the spectrum with narrow boost . Go hard on it and es you sweep along make note of where is sounds most horrible (distortion type sound) and .... cut.

on another note.. get two/three/four identical loops you have made lash em into abelton and have hp & lp filters going in all directions and make another 4 bar loop out of the results. Repeat step one and cut out those shitty sounds/bass & highs.
