Loop Page

The Loop page contains settings for the sustain loop and the release loop, and lets you set up two different loop sets.

Loop Sets A and B

Allow you to set up two different sets of loops for the same sample. This is useful to compare different versions of the same loop, for example.

Loop Mode

Allows you to select a mode for the sustain loop and the release loop.

  • If this is set to No Loop, the sample is played without a loop.

  • If this is set to Continuous, the loop is played continuously until the end of the amplitude envelope.

  • If this is set to Alternate, the loop runs back and forth, even if you release the key.

  • If this is set to Once, the loop is repeated once.

  • If this is set to Until Release (sustain loop only), the loop is repeated until you release the key on the keyboard.

  • If this is set to Alternate Until Release (sustain loop only), the loop runs back and forth for as long as the key is held, and then continues to the end of the sample.

Note

If Loop Mode is set to Alternate or Alternate Until Release, the loop crossfade is applied to the loop start and the loop end. All other modes on the Loop Mode pop-up menu apply the loop crossfade to the loop end only.

Loop Start

Defines the loop start for the sustain loop and for the release loop.

If a value is specified for this parameter, a marker line is shown in the waveform display. You can drag the marker to adjust the parameter.

Loop End

Defines the loop end for the sustain loop and for the release loop.

If a value is specified for this parameter, a marker line is shown in the waveform display. You can drag the marker to adjust the parameter.

Link Loop Start and End

Links the loop start and end positions. If you edit one of the values, the other one is automatically modified.

Crossfade

Allows you to introduce a crossfade between loop end and loop start. Crossfades allow for smoother transitions.

Curve

Allows you to create a linear curve, an equal power curve, or anything in between for the crossfade.

Tuning

Sets the tuning of the loop. This is useful to adjust the frequency of the loop.
