how do you remove a loop? (not what's in it)

Post by Mulberry9 » Sun Feb 25, 2018 4:45 am

I have a loop. I do not want a loop. I want the things/voices in the loop, but I don't want them to loop. I have tried to delete said loop. There is no way to remove said loop. Right click, left click, click drag click. In the process of trying to find a way to delete the loop, I have now somehow told the loop to start at 1.1 and play continuously. There is no way to undo this action.
I have consulted the User Manual. You can create loops but apparently never delete them...

No deleting the loop, but activating/deactivating.

Most obvious is the "Loop" button in the Sample frame, for audio clips see 8.2.2 Sample Loop/Region and Display and scroll down a bit till you get to "Looping Clips"; for midi clips see 8.3.3 MIDI Loop/Region

And there's an option in the context menue, when you right click inside the sample editor or MIDI-notes editor.

Easiest way to access properties of a Clip is to click on or double click on that clip.

Properties will show at the bottom of the screen.
