Tutorial 6—Using Groove Clips
To Loop a Groove Clip
1. Move the cursor over the end of the first Groove clip in Track 2 until a
blue vertical line appears at the edge of the clip and the cursor looks
like this .
2. When the cursor changes and the line appears, click the end of the clip
and drag it to the right until you have created one repetition of the clip
(through the end of measure 6).
You can also create a partial loop of a Groove clip if the Snap to Grid
setting is set to less than one measure. You can create a partial loop as
small as the Snap to Grid setting allows. For example, if your Snap to Grid
setting is set to quarter notes, you can create partial repetitions as small as
a quarter of a measure.
Now lets edit the clip we copied on Track 2.
To Crop a Groove Clip

box, set the Musical Time duration to Quarter, and close the dialog box.
2. Move your cursor over the beginning of the second clip in Track 2 until
a blue line (clip handle) appears and the cursor looks like this .
3. “Crop” the beginning of the clip one and a quarter measure (you may
want to expand the Clips pane a little by dragging the Horizontal Zoom
slider that’s in the lower right corner).
Like this:
4. Crop the end of the clip by one quarter measure.
