Hi guys,

New to protools and have a question

How do i go about creating a basic loop pattern in Pro tools?
For the record, i have a new imac, mbox2 and protools 7.3
I read a couple of methods and the easiest was to import audio (say a WAV file) trim out the unwated sections of audio and zoom in and out until there is a nice clean loop.....problem is i cant get it looping even by going to Options/loop record and turning this on, as this was the advice given......in fact, the only way i could hear the audio looped was by going to the Region/Loop menu and selecting a number of loops....am i doing something wrong, why cant i have one section of music looped ??

Any help is appreciated.
