Looping sample playback on Editor page

[melbournejay]

When working with loops in the sample editor. Previewing a loop (sample) at present stops at the end of sample. To see how the sample works as a loop a looping playback function would be useful. Especially to hear if loop is good before having to use crop.

I propose the UI gap between undo and apply to be loop playback controlled by the corresponding below button

What is the problem?

Unable to preview sample in sample editor screen as continuous loop.

What do you want to achieve?

Continuing looping playback in Sample editor.

Are there any workarounds?

Crop and then check in looping playback with song/pattern.

Any links to related discussions?

Unaware.

Any references to other products?

Have a loop option for cropping in the Sample Editor

What is the problem? When using the Crop Effect in the Sample Editor, it is often difficult to determine if you’ve cropped the sample properly without having the ability to loop it What do you want to achieve? Have the ability to set the start and end points in the sample editor and hear what that sounds like as a loop. It just so happens there is this empty button between Undo and Apply that could be a latching loop button (off by default to maintain current and expected functionality), but w…
