 Offset
The offset setting defines a clip’s location in the Main Clip Grid.
 Length
The length setting defines the size of the clip. If the length value setting is longer
than the entire audio clip, the clip will repeat until it reaches the set length value.
The clip will show “indentations” in the bottom where it repeats.
 Loop Start/End
Defines a clip’s playback start and end points. Example: say you like the second half
of a four-bar loop, but don’t like the first half. Changing the Loop Start setting from
1:1:0 to 3:1:0 will skip playback of the first half. Loop start and end points can be
set either by clicking in the number fields in the Sound>Time tab, or by moving
the
Loop Start and Loop End markers in the audio waveform display. You can also
set a clip’s start and end points by grabbing and moving its start and end points in
the Main Clip Grid. Regardless of how a clip’s start and end points are set, all
displays will update.
 # Loops
The number of times a loop will repeat. (This setting can potentially overlap with
the
Length setting – changing one automatically updates the other.)
