Setting up a Loop

To set up the sustain and the release loop, you can set the start and end positions manually and/or use the functions to automatically detect suitable loop positions. For a smooth loop, you must find positions at which the loop end can be continued naturally at the loop start.

Procedure

  1. On the Loop tab, select a loop mode for the sustain loop and the release loop.

    The corresponding markers are shown in the waveform display.

  2. Activate Edit Loop on the toolbar.
  3. Do one of the following:

    • Set the start and end markers for the loop by dragging the marker handles.

    • Press Shift and drag the audio before or after the loop end marker to adjust the end or the start position, respectively.

    • To move loop start and end at the same time, position the mouse pointer between the Loop Start and Loop End markers at the height of the marker flags, and drag to the left or right.

    • To automatically detect suitable loop start and end positions, click Find Previous Loop Start/Find Next Loop Start or Find Previous Loop End/Find Next Loop End.

      The loop markers are set accordingly.

      Note

      The Loop Transition, Threshold, and Loop Score settings influence the marker detection features.
