Clip "Release" loop markers?

Post by MrYellow » Sat Oct 01, 2005 10:57 am

Probably been discussed before but can't find it in the search....

For the life of me I can't work out how to get the "release" section of a loop
to play after looping the middle section. I've played around with follow
actions but just can't work it out.

yes this keeps coming up but as far as i know there is no way to have a "releace" on your loops.

Sorry. Feature wishlist

lol then why do we have an end marker?

I did find one post where Henke said it would be possible combining the
new features with follow actions, but just can't get it to work that way....

Unless I use 2 or 3 different loops and follows......

I guess the end point does at least allow you to do a one-shot that stops...

the end marker is for use with non-looped sounds, so it's just like a "play-once"-function.

The new loop functions (separate from the start marker) are cool for one thing though: doing a loop that goes 1-2-3-4-3-4-3-4 for instance by setting a follow-action to two bars and "play again" - and if you set the loop to an odd lenght and place, plus retrigger via follow action at weird intervals the results can be quite pleasing.

Yeah got it now..... Just I wasn't with the paradigm, I saw Start Loop End
and thought u could make it play the "release" before stopping.
