Non Destructive Groove Clip Loop?

[sadicus]

is there a setting that allows getting the data back after looping a clip?
just make a duplicate of the clip before looping?

Unless I misunderstand the question, if the clip started off as non-looped, you can just turn off looping, unless you bounced the clip to itself after setting the loop characteristics.

that's what I thought, but lately when I make a loop ..."data will be discarded"
then when I want to unloop it, the data is gone.

Hi sadicus,

I'm just guessing here, but I think you should split the clip first and then convert it.

Kind regards,

1) Split the audio
2) copied to a new track
3) loop (data will be removed)
4) un-loop

is there a "don't delete audio" setting ?

Try trimming the (copied) clip before looping it.

I realized why I don't have that problem. If I have a lot of audio and I want to convert just one section into a loop, I split at the beginning and end of that section, and loop that clip. So if I unloop it, it just goes back to where it was before looping the clip.

It does not matter where I try to loop the audio in the same track, copied etc. every time "Loop"is enabled that "data will be discarded" message pops up.
...some internal setting that changed?
oh maybe "comping is enabled and that effects it?
No I just tried all the settings and still get the message. Something changed some where I don't remember it working like this.
