Default Looping a selection to test out plugins on the fly? (Cycle region?)

Hi guys,

I've been banging my head against a brick wall trying to figure this one out!

Is there an easy way to select part of a track and set it to loop over? I want to do it so I can play around with various plugins on the fly (i.e., whilst part of the track is playing and looping over).

In Logic I'd do this by setting a cycle region, is there a similar option in Reaper?

At the moment the track runs out after 20 seconds so I have to keep moving the playhead back to the beginning (PITA!)

Thanks!

You can drag out a loop region in the timeline. 'Repeat' has to be enabled (in the transport bar) for it to loop.

Read chapter 2.13 of the user guide for details and tipps.
