Another Dj'ing help question!!

Post by mrlovatt » Fri Nov 05, 2004 7:08 pm

Right i've done a few searches it nothing has really answer my question so here goes...

I get the idea of using live to DJ.. i can PFL use wr=arp and all the rest of it.. now what i want to know is..

Say i have two tracks i wanna mix together Track A & B.

So track A is playing and i wanna bring track B into the mix. but instead of just letting track A play out i wanna loop say the last 16bars of track A and have this play.. while track b progresses. HOW DO I DO THIS!! coz when ever i set track A to loop is skips to the loop bit straight away.

flip to arrange mode and use the split command to "cut" the last 16 bars into its own clip and flip back to session mode and put your outro-loop clip on the same track under the song it was from.
then simply trigger it when it is time or setup a follow action on the song clip to play your outro loop clip when it is done.
