Subject:RE: wierd pause at the end of each segment of my loop Reply by: instrumental Date:8/23/2004 2:23:39 PM i've had a similar problem... i use GoldWave to record samples on me pc - and for some reason one day it decided to save the loops i'd recorded as mp3's instead of wav. files - i found that when i opened these in acid they had the tiniest bits of silence at the end of each loop which caused the loop to sound poorly clipped... not sure why your older files are doing this though??

Even just a bit of silence can throw your loop off. If you're concerned about space, try using Sony's own proprietary PCA format. It probably won't consume less space than an MP3, but it should consume less space than a WAV, plus it's lossless but compressed.

hi...

ive got a problem with my Acid... i recently reinstalled it because of computer problems.
well... now, when i open up loops (ones iv jus made n even previous ones which worked fine before) and spread them across a track they have a little pause at the end of each segment of the loop.

so if a loop was supose to sound like "hit hit hit hit hit hit hit hit "

it would sound like "hit hit hit hit- hit hit hit hit-" etc...

any1 know why this is?

does any1 know why this is?
