Gargageband Loop? Options

[seabass069]

When I drag a loop into Garageband, when the loop starts over there is a small pause. When I just play the loop at the bottom of Gargeband is loops over and over without any skips to it. What cause the skip when I drag and drop it. I copy and paste over and over so that it is one continuous loop, but it skips at the beginning of each loop. How can I stop that and make it one long loop?

you can join certain sorts of loops together into one loop. Select each loop to be joined by shift-clicking each one. then choose edit>join(command J).
You can change orange loops into purple ones by selecting and then ctrl>alt>g
If your loops are skipping, open in the track editor, stretch to the max and trim bits off the end until the pitch/waveform matches.
Sometimes nothing works cos the loop hasm't been designed to join seamlessly.
Good luck

have you checked the bpm of the loops against the tempo of the piece, sometimes too dissparate tempos won't sync.?

Take a close look at the sample, in an audio editor app (audacity, it's free) to see if there is any dead air present. I suspect you have a gap of silence.

Also take a look at it with the Apple loop utility to see if the slices are uniform.
