To Loop a Groove Clip
1. Move the cursor over the end of the first Groove clip in Track 2 until the
cursor looks like this .
2. When the cursor changes, 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

like this .
3. “Crop” the beginning of the clip one and a quarter measure (you may want to

the lower right corner).
Like this:
4. Crop the end of the clip by one quarter measure.
