i just got acid hip hop 2.0, and i'm trying out some
things. my question is how do you split up parts of a loop
for a song without having to edit the wav file?

right now i'm looking at the M.O..acd demo song in theAcid
Hip Hop cd (in the Product Info\Demo_Songs\ folder). the
song uses the MAC MONEY Scratch 14 loop, and it splits up
parts of it up in the track (kinda like making a vocal loop
go "what-what-what's my name").

go here for a window capture of what i'm looking at, with
the MAC MONEY Scratch 14 loop a bit zoomed in:

Well, zoom into the loop at the point that you want to split. Put
the cursor at the point you want to split. You may then either right
click your mouse and then choose split at cursor or push the s key on
your keyboard. You need to do this on each side of the point that
you wish to split. Secondly you need to copy the part you want by
first selecting the split part then holding down the control button
and dragging the copied segment into different part of the notes.
You can then to use your example make a loop go "wha wha wh whats my
name."

Use the LOOP markers to (blue strip)position the exact part
you want, then use "Mix to new" track command.
