Common questions about laser beam

What is the difference between a laser beam and a laser shot?

A shot is a short zap; a beam keeps firing, as in Steady Laser Beam 07. Short shots are on the Sci-Fi Laser page.

Is there a double laser beam?

Not as a separate file; play Steady Laser Beam 07 twice with one slightly delayed.

Is there a laser beam loop?

These files are single takes, not checked as seamless loops.
