Re: Reel to reel speeds.

Re: Smooth Out Peaks Over Long Time?

There's an art to seamless looping and not all techniques work well with all samples. Some things to try: Rather than looping, use the "Change Tempo" effect to extend the selection (try both options for the "Use high quality..." checkbox http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/change_...
