Getting rid of gaps, silly question probably

[Snaak]

Hello,

Most of the time when I'm editing a loop, there will be small audio gaps (even if the project's BPM and the loop's BPM are the same), I don't exactly know how to stretch the audio so that the gaps will be removed. (I thought I had to use Auto-Stretch, but it doesn't quite seem to work?)

Also when I adjust my project's BPM to match it to the loop's BPM the gaps will get larger or things run out of hand even more so to speak.

There's probably just a simple way to fix this and I have overlooked it.

I'm using Reaper with LiveSlice as a VST.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance and kind regards,
Snaak

what goes wrong when you click [Autostretch] ?

could be the volume envelope settings - Attack Hold Decay parameters on the track - a high decay parameter will force each slice to fade out near the end. Or it could be that the duration of the source loop is wrong - if a 1 bar loop is treated as a 2 bar loop it will be played at half speed.

If autostretch doesn't stretch enough, you can adjust the stretch parameter manually to a higher value.

Thanks for the replies!

Will check if changing the volume envelope settings helps and report back.
