Loop points (as an additional thing - I mean, you don't *have* to use them) could also be great for those mangling around with sounds.Spe3D wrote:Looping is really only of benefit on sustained instruments like a Violin where you would like to extend the possibility of an infinite bow – but on a guitar if the whole sample is there – then I think loops can in fact take away realism. Loops are cool if you need to make really small files fit into really small memory banksSomeone correct me if I am wrong
But, as Markleford eloquently pointed out in another thread, this would only make sense in case you'd set them somewhere early in the sample, because later in the sustain stage the sound of a bass usually becomes quite uninteresting. And then, setting proper looppoints early in the decay stage might require destructive editing of the source samples, which obviously would be no good for realistic tones.
