Allright, just one more example on this topic.
This, again, is what I call a "in-track loop".
That is, I haven't taken the loop out and applied fade-outs, just selected the
audio and used the command: effect | repeat

In this particular example, the original "loop" by the original composer runs some
three measures (or bars), before the orchestra repeats with the same notes.
In the picture, this is denoted by the loop "01" and loop "02" regions.
The editors of this audio have allowed the piece to run for 3 measures, then
2 measures more (loop 02), before truncating it at the start of the 3rd measure
of "loop 02" (the unique pattern part).
You COULD create a loop from this audio using just the audio found in the "loop 01
section" as it is "all there" (just not shown in the picture), but in this example, the
Loop 01 section's first two measures are a bit "dainty".
So, what I did was loop from:
06.448354-11.176530
...thus, the first part of the second loop is now the end of the NEW loop, but it all
works anyways and even manages to sound authentic.
Here's the example, have some fun...
