Looping Groove Clips
Here’s where Groove clips get fun. You need only drag the beginning or
end of a Groove clip to create repetitions or loops.
First, though, lets copy the Groove clip in Track 2.
To Copy a Groove Clip
1. Press the Ctrl key and click and drag the clip until the beginning is at
measure 8 and release.
The Drag and Drop Options dialog appears.
2. Make sure the Copy Entire Clips as Linked Clips option is not checked
and click OK.
A copy of the Groove clip now appears on the same track at measure 8.
