Loop regions in Logic Pro for iPad
You can loop regions so that they play repeatedly, and extend them to fill any amount of time in the Tracks area. When you play the project, the regions repeat for the number of times they are looped. Each repetition appears as a notch in the looped region.
You can also loop a region that has been trimmed. When you loop a trimmed region, only the visible portion of the region repeats when you play the project. If you add silence by lengthening a region, the silence is included in each repetition of the loop.
Loop a region
In Logic Pro, tap the Loop button
in the Tracks area menu bar.Tap the region to select it.
Drag the loop handle on the right edge of the region to set the number of times the region repeats.
Loop a region continuously
In Logic Pro, tap the region to select it.
Do one of the following:
Tap the region again, then choose Edit > Loop.
Tap the Inspector button
to open the Inspector, tap the General disclosure triangle (if General parameters are hidden), then tap the Loop switch.The region loops continuously until the start of the next region on the track, or until the end of the project. You can unloop the region by tapping the Loop switch or choosing Loop again.
If you trim a looped region, the repetitions are also trimmed, but the loop keeps its overall duration.
