16.2 Clips and Nested Loops
Each clip is part of a loop. The loop is marked by the words Repeat Count and the curved
arrow. Clips are marked by a speaker icon.
The Audio Message Composer lets you create nested loops. If one loop is nested inside
another, then the inside loop will play a specified number of times for every time the outside
loop plays.
You can make up to 4 levels of nesting.
You can move a clip up or down within a loop, but you cannot move a clip outside a loop. For
this reason, create the loop first, then import the clip into the loop.
