Setting the Clip to Run Into a Loop.
The Loop Length and Position fields are equipped with Set buttons, which can be used to create
loops spontaneously during playback:
Playing the clip and then clicking the Set Loop Position button moves the beginning of loop to the
current playback position (rounded to the global quantization setting) and engages the loop.
Then, clicking the Set Loop Length button moves the end of the loop to the current playback po-
sition. This lets you capture the music in a loop on the fly.
While the loop is still off, you can click the Set Loop Length button to set the loop to end at the
current playback position without changing its preset length. This simultaneously activates loop-
ing.
The Set buttons, the Loop switch, the loop brace and the start/end markers can all be mapped
to MIDI controls (page 477). You could, for example, use a rotary encoder to move the loop
through a sample in increments the size of the chosen quantization interval.
