Beginner here, apologies, I must be doing something dumb.

I am using the arrangement view.
I have 2 tracks:
- 7 bar audio clip to repeat "forever" (ambient) starting at 1.1.1
- 16 bar midi track starting at 5.1.1 and ending at 21.1.1

I want the audio clip to repeat until the song has ended.

My problem:
I have enabled Loop on the audio clip, but when the play reaches 8.1.1 all tracks start playing back at 1.1.1, including the midi track.

How can I loop so that the clip keeps looping but the other tracks continue playing from 8.1.1 onwards?

I seem to have tried everything but the right thing. How do I achieve the above? (And keep my sanity ^^" )

Thanks so much!
