I have noticed that you do copy and paste often and move down the timeline in order to create your loop. I have been using lots and lots of similar tricks to make audio conform to a particular need, and what you show here is a nice one too! I was glad to watch your video and happy that you have shared it! I’ve been working primarily in the audio-post industry (in LA), so timing has always been an important aspect for what we try to achieve sonically on our soundtracks. I think this is a fantastic technique for creating a loop with a target length. Copy and paste this region somewhere, add the smallest in and out fades possible, and bounce or export. Now simply highlight the ruler (this does not work with the yellow-box highlight style), hit the “ P” or “ ” keys to move the highlight over the source audio, and playback (making sure you only hear the source audio track). Try to place the starting point of the ruler at a zero-crossing point. As long as the exact length of the original loop is maintained, you can maneuver the ruler to accommodate any large wave forms.

Shift it over so that it’s length covers any and all cross-fades in the duplicated source region.

The region or region group created above will act as a ruler for the creation of the final loop.

One way to do this is to highlight (double-click) only the first half of the double-region and copy and paste this down to the other track. Place it beneath the Cross-faded double region that is your source.

Create a region or region group ( OPT+CMD+G) the EXACT length of the original highlighted loop (before duplicating).

Test the smoothness of the transition and adjust the crossfade shape and length as needed.

Duplicate the file (use CMD+D to ensure sample accuracy) and cross-fade the two together without shifting their positions in any way.

Copy and paste the highlighted area onto a new area on the track.

Following the natural pattern of a waveform is especially important if the source material already has a noticeable rhythm to it. Pay attention to the In and Out waveform sizes and try to match them.

Using waveforms as your guide, highlight a section that is close to your ideal loop.Consolidate any effects you want on the source material, and bypass any active effects you have on the track you will be working with.Set your session to loop playback, and have 2 side-by-side Audio Tracks available for use.
