Loop Part of a Media file

Working on something and I'm not quite sure how to do it. I have a media file that is a set of strings that start low and swell. It is about 30 seconds or so in length, and I would like to have it start at the beginning, and then just loop the last 10 seconds or so until I stop it.

I think it could be accomplished if within the media tools, there was a "lock loop range" function. In combination with the lock play range, it would give me the ability to start a sample where I wanted(play range), and then loop indefinitely(loop range) until I stopped it.

I guess I could also just have the same media file loaded, and have one play range setup to play the last 10 seconds. But then I'm wondering if I can assign a trigger that plays the media group starting with the first media file (the 30 seonds), and then continues onto the second media file the 10 seconds looped)

Any thoughts?

+1 for lockable loop range!

The second part (mediafile playing after another) is something I have been waiting since the beginning of development of Cantabile2. My latest suggestion was to have a trigger when a medifile has finished.

So +1 for mediafile end trigger too! :hihi:

Brad, any thoughts?

Maybe that can be done via Cantabiles TelNet Server.

The only thing about TelNet I've noticed is that replies and notifications have some latency. Triggering changes however seems to be fast. I currently use TelNet to select new SetList entries or SubSessions and that works fine.

Hi curucaman,

Sorry I haven't replied earlier.

I've tried a few changes to see if I could make this work, but I'm not happy with it. I was thinking of perhaps splitting the file, and having an option to automatically start playback of the next in a group when one finishes. Then you could set the loop on the second file to get what you're after. Trying it though I couldn't get the transition between media players smooth enough.

I'm working on some other bug fixes/minor improvements at the moment and will try to revisit this again soon.
