Hello Joe, Rick, itsabird,
Thanks for your feedback!
I use Sound Forge for all sample processing.
Thanks for the suggestion. This looks like a nice suite of tools.
Alot faster if the recordings are good (and you're lucky) is LoopAuditioneer.
Perhaps you could contact forum member NicholasA (Nick Appleton). He has written a program named 'autoloop'.
I have used both of these programs in the past and both have given good results most of the time. It's just that every once in a while I encounter a rank which is particularly difficult to loop (sometimes multiple consecutive notes that don't loop well).
Best regards,
Jake
