REQUEST: "Exclude"-feature to "jump over" selected portions of a track (the opposite of Loop-feature)

[pulsewalk]

We have the Loop feature where we can select a time range in the ruler or simply selecting a clip to set the markers to loop between when the track is played.

What we are missing though, is an "Exclude section"-feature, where we could select a portion/section of a track that we would like to "jump over" during play, just to exclude that part.

Maybe we want to hear how the track sounds without those 8 bars, etc. Just select the time (or the clip(s) we want to exclude, and press the "Exclude" button, that's it. A portion of the track is prepared with markers (just like when we select a portion/section to loop), and when we play the track the "exclude-part" of the track is simply jumped over without pause or glitches or anything.

This would be a very handy feature!

Isn't that what the Arranger tracks do?

AFAIK it can't just jump over portions of a track smoothly. Looping is smooth. Excluding a bit of a track would also be smooth. Not to mention both very quickly done. Arranger track is a different thing.

You can do that using arrangements.
