Quick question about Loops..

Badbren 6:56 PM - 26 July, 2018
Hey all! Hows it going. Hopefully a quick question from a new "dj" practicing and getting started.

My question is..

Lets say im playing a 2 bar Loop which is a vocal that says "Lets Go Now" for example.
If i want to hit it to a 1 bar loop, it would go to like.."Lets Go" maybe you know? How can i change it so that when i change it from 2 bars to 1 bar, it will use the 2nd half of that 2 bar loop? So instead of Chopping it to "Lets" eventually for a build up, it would be "now" instead. Hope it makes sense...lol sorry

I believe you can only double the loop or cut it in half. When you cut it in half you are left with the first half.

It can go as low as 1/32.

Was hoping there was a way I can it could cut it in half and keep the second half of that.

Make the second half a sample... or put a cue point on it and trigger that after your loops.
Or - make two separate loops and cycle through them as needed.

Create a manual loop at the start point you want and save it to a loop slot.
