OK i have just inserted a wav file and split a section into a 2 bar section. I then delete the rest of the file and glue the section i want to keep. I then drag the right hand side of the clip across to bar 31. I then zoom in using the scroll wheel at bar 29 and the loop is not on the bar. If i extend this out to the gap just keeps getting bigger.

Is Snap Settings -> Snap to sample rate enabled? That could lead to odd item length when splitting even when snap is enabled (depending on BPM, there might be no sample at exact measure/beat positions).
If you have it enabled, I think also enabling Project Settings -> "Force project time signatures to have beats on whole samples" should fix. (Only tempi which have beats on whole samples are possible with that enabled, so you will see tempi of 130.001 and similar) |

I had reaper installed on my wifes machine so i tried it on that. It works as it should. SO it's either my machine or a reaper config issue. I have now uninstalled and then reinstalled and now it doesn't do it. I have tried the settings Gofer suggested but this doesn't make it do it either now. I have now loaded the project that 1st raised this issue and some of the clips still refuse to loop. I have found the offending clip and zoomed in max, then split at the cursor, then when i glue nothing happens the loop point is still just before the bar. Any other ideas?

Just a bit more info.
Tried inserting a clip as before and split/glue and loop. Now when i look at the loop point the split is ahead of the bar not behind the bar. |

It looks like it's a glue issue. See screen shots of clip before and after Glue.

Can you possibly post the project file, with the audio item, or even just the audio item and the target tempo?

Hi Fex i have uploaded a zip with the offending loop.

Thanks.
Confirmed. The first loop point is 4.4.99, not 5.1.00. However, splitting at 5.1.00, then copying, pasting, gluing and looping causes further odd behavior, with the loop point out of sync, as described. Snap to project sample rate is not enabled. If the source wav (resampled from 48.0kHz) is dropped into a new project, rendered to 44.1 kHz, copied, pasted, glued and looped, the copy also falls out of sync, but looping at different points to the original. This is WEIRD. |

Try stetching the loop and it doesn't snap to the next bar instead kind of has a loop point before it?
Thanks for confirming i'm not going mad. I can't always replicate it but sometime the loop is ahead as well as behind. |

Start a new project. Set tempo to 155 BPM. Create a track. Set the time selection to cover the first four bars. Insert an empty item. Ctrl, click, drag, drop the copy right after the original. Glue. Loop. Swear. |

Yes it's the same here.
What happens now?? |

Just a bit more info.
I installed v4.00 and it still does it. I installed v3.78 and it still does it. So it looks like it's been around a while. |

Still can't reproduce (using Fex' receipt). Please create a thread in the Bug Report forum where more info can be collected without cluttering the issue tracker ticket.
EDIT: Discussion thread: http://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?p=888624 thanks, Gary :) |

Hi
I have now uploaded a LIce/GIf clip of what happens. Thanks Gary |

Not a bug. You need the "loop section of source" function to create proper looping audio!

First off thanks for solving the puzzle.
Secondly why is this not the default action of splitting/glueing ?? Is this the same for MIDI clips as well? Surely nobody want their audio/midi going out of sync? Sorry but i can't see the point in having to go into each clip select another thing to make it loop properly. |

Reaper is now doing weird things again.
I have inserted a loop and stretched it to the end of the bar, glued it and dragged it out. Without the "Loop section of item source" selected it is now staying in sync. Getting extremely frustrated with how reaper is dealing with clips. One minute it works next is doesn't. I now do not trust Reaper to work with my audio. I'm a big fan and renewed my license at version 4. :(:(:( Very Sad day today. |

Ok so i have the following.
"Force project time signatures to have beats on whole samples" - Unticked. "Snap to project sample rate" - Unticked Still doing it. Clip loop point is behind the beat. |

-> audio file with duration of 1 beat -> now you could just drag it out but it won't stay in sync with the beat grid -> rightclick the item and also enable "Loop section of item source" (make sure to resize the item to exactly 1 beat before) -> drag out the item => now it will loop properly in sync with the beat grid forever ... (in the Item Properties window you also can adjust the X-fade lenght in case you'll get some clicks at the loop boundaries) |

Your method works but don't you think it's a bit awkward to go into each clip and ensure each has the correct setting?
99.9% i would guess would want their clips to stay locked to the beat as a default by cutting and glueing at the relevant beat. Why doesn't it stay in time if you cut each clip by 1 bar and then loop it? 1 bar is 1 bar isn't it?? Thanks for answering and helping me out. |

If you don't want to do this all the time, you need to enable the "Force project time signatures to have beats on whole samples" (Project Settings) and "Snap to project sample rate" (Grid/snap settings) options.
You're working with whole samples this way all the time and the beat grid is snapped to samples too. Should work. Maybe you need to set (tick the checkbox) the project sample rate in the project settings for this to work! |

If you tick "Snap to project sample rate" (Grid/snap settings) then this won't happen (because all stuff is snapped to whole samples). |

A smile is now starting to appear.
This seems to be working as i would expect it to. I wonder how these settings got turned off or are they not like that to start with? Once again thanks for your help. |

"Save as default project settings" button in the Project Settings should save project settings and grid/snap settings ...

Now i've got the loops staying in sync i now can't set the tempo correctly. If i enter 114 i get 113.998. I presume this is to do with forcing the Sample rate?
Just when i think i'm getting somewhere! Hmmmm. |
02-12-2012 03:29 AM | |||

Yes, that's related to forcing the grid to snap to sample rate, as gofer said in his first reply to this report. It's to be expected when you base everything on sample rate. The difference between 140 and 139.998 is really not that big for human ear to sense it, so why worry?
