And you’re done! Select File > Export and choose 16bit WAV to save the loop.48000 (48khz) is also fine, but is more often used in video work. For game development, and many other uses such as CD quality music, 44100 (44.1khz) is more than adequate. Select Project Rate in the bottom left corner and choose a new sample rate. If, like me, you’ve been using a high sample rate audio clip (my file was 96khz) then now would be a good time to choose a lower sample rate for export. You may need to listen with headphones to check this. If you can hear a quick, smooth dip, like a bump at the loop point, then the fades are too long, if you can hear a noise that resembles a static pop, the fades are too short.

It works best when you try to match the natural curve of the audio wave. If everything is sounding right, it’s time to export.Īdding a short fade in and out prevents the audio file from popping when it first plays from silent. Preview the loop by selecting Transport > Playing > Loop Play.
