Hello list,
I'm a new convert to linux audio having used Logic, CoolEdit, rebirth

and Acid - but there is one thing that really puzzles me ...
When I use one of the above windows apps there is always a loop facility

where a section/region/chunk of the track can be easily looped just by

selecting it with the mouse and pressing play ... I've downloaded

ardour, rosegarden, gnusound, audacity, and others and none of them have

this instant loop facility (er, except sweep, which is fine, but I need

a loop mixer/editor like logic or acid to put my samples together).
Am I the only one to work in this way?
The other thing with ardour (fantastic looking) is that I can't get

samples to sit next to each other (snap) unless I'm really careful with

the mouse - any ideas?
Thanks in advance for any advice!
Andy
