This is one Looooong clip - yes? Well, I double click somewhere on the loooong clip, the loop region is created and the Cursor appears flashing at the beginning. You can't mean this - surely?

Grazie

No not exactly

When you scrub through a clip freely now you find a section you want to isolate if I double click the loop starts and ends the entire length of clip

Now I want the loop region to appear where I am on the timeline so that I can select the section I want in other words I want the two yellow triangles to appear

Left and right of scrubber so I can manipulate loop region from there and not go hunt for the loop region

Am I making sense?

Thanks guys

Press R and create a Region. Name it and you can recall it. Any good?

Grazie

let me try get back shortly

Ok Grazie

That only works if the loop is active

I normally click on time line to deactivate the loop region then scrub freely through the clip now I find the section I want further down

So now the screw up is I need to fetch the loop region which has been deactivated I want to stay on the section because if I move to fetch the loop I lose my position I want the loop triangles to snap to cursor or scrubber so I can set the loop from the scrubbers present position

thanks Rory

Pressing i or o will set the loop region's in or out point to the current cursor position.

I can't see how one would set the whole loop region to the cursor's current position in one step since the cursor only defines one instant on the timeline. Seems like this would have to be a two step operation.

If you want to reactivate an existing region double-click in the area between the two yellow triangles.
