Making loops in Anime Studio Debut 8

[olscratch]

How do you select a segment of audio and delete the rest and establish a repeating pattern? I'm unable to cut and paste like I'm used to in text management. (beginner obviously)

I believe your best choice would be to use some kind or audio editor or even a video editor and cut the parts out you do not want and save as .wav or .mp3 then import that to AS and then at the end of the audio file just cycle back to frame 1 to loop the audio. You will have to add the key frame at the end.

I know you can loop video with a box you can check but I am not sure about audio.

Many thanks; it may be beyond me but I'll try. I was suspecting there were easy ways to cut within AS but I haven't got my sea legs yet. Possibly there are methods of cutting and pasting within the program so simple you didn't realize I didn't know how to do them (such as "cut out the parts you don't want"). I'll try to learn more basics.

I suggest you download Audacity asap and watch some tutorials on YouTube on how to edit audio. It is very simple once you get into editing.

Just realized I have GarageBand which should do the trick. Thanks again.
