is halted by the Stop command.
 Go to Selection End: Moves the playhead to the end of the first selected region or
event in the active window.

Using Cycle Mode
You can use Cycle mode to repeatedly play a selected passage. This is useful for:

 Practicing, before making a recording.
 Recording individual tracks consecutively.
 Editing events.
 Recording multiple takes.
The cycle area is defined by the position of the left and right locators. When Cycle
