CHAPTER 8

Using Loops
To extend or shorten a loop-enabled clip:
1 Select the clip, and then position the pointer over the bottom left or right handle—the
loop editing icon appears.
2 Drag the handle to extend the loop the desired number of bars. Depending on how far
you drag, you can make the loop repeat fully or partially. For example, you might drag a
loop that is one bar long so that it extends 3-1/2 bars, ending on a beat within the loop. As
you cross each bar, a white vertical line appears in the clip. This is the snap-to line,
indicating perfect alignment to beats in other tracks.
Extending a loop
A. Moving the cursor to activate the loop. B. Dragging the loop, with snap to lines indicating how the loop
snaps to the beats in other tracks
