16.3 Nested Loop Example
Figure 75 shows a composition with nested loops. In this composition, clip A plays twice (Loop
3), then clip B plays 3 times (Loop 4). These clips form a loop which repeats 4 times (Loop 2).
Then clip C plays 3 times (Loop 5). The entire composition plays twice (Loop 1).

16.3.1 Procedure for creating a nested loop
This procedure shows how to create the composition in Figure 75.
To create a nested loop
1. Click the Add Loop button.
A loop appears with a repeat count of 1.
2. Select the loop and type 2 in the Repeat count field. This is Loop 1.
3. Select Loop 1 and click Add Loop.
A second loop appears inside the outermost loop.
4. Select the second loop and type 4 in the Repeat count field. This is Loop 2.
5. Select Loop 2 and click Add Loop.
A third loop appears inside the second loop.
6. Select the third loop and type 2 in the Repeat count field. This is Loop 3.
7. Select Loop 3, then select clip A in the Audio Clips list, then click the >> button to move
clip A to the Composition list.
Clip A appears inside Loop 3.
8. Select Loop 2 and click Add Loop.
The new loop appears above Loop 3 but still inside Loop 2.
9. Select the new loop and type 3 in the Repeat count field. This is Loop 4.
10. Select Loop 4, then select clip B in the Audio Clips list, then click the >> button to move
clip B to the Composition list.
Clip B appears inside Loop 4.
11. Select Loop 1 and click Add Loop.
12. Select the new loop and type 3 in the Repeat count field. This is Loop 5.
