1. Make a selection of any length and content on one or more tracks.
2. (Optional) Play the selection using Loop Playback to ensure that it plays
smoothly in succession, without glitches. If the selection plays smoothly
when it loops, you can duplicate it without creating an audible edit point.
3. Adjust the selection as needed to create a smooth loop transition. You
might want to zoom in to position the start and end of the selection on a
zero crossing (a point of no amplitude in a waveform).
4. After you are satisfied with the selection, choose EDIT > DUPLICATE or
press CTRL+D (Windows) or COMMAND+D (Mac). The selection will be
duplicated and pasted at the end of the selected area or clip.
The Repeat Command
The Repeat command is similar to Duplicate, but it allows you to specify the
number of times the selected material will be duplicated.
To repeat a selection of audio or MIDI data multiple times, do the following:
1. Make a selection of any length and content on one or more tracks.
2. Choose EDIT > REPEAT or press ALT+R (Windows) or OPTION+R
(Mac). The Repeat dialog box will open.

3. Enter the desired number of repeat iterations and click OK. The selected
material will be duplicated in succession immediately following the
selection’s end point, as specified in the Repeat dialog box.
