Arthur,

I'll assume that you're not syncing to a drum machine, since in that
case what you want to do would be automatic with Loop4.

One simple way, which would work with any version of the Loop software,
would be to end Record with Multiply after the first bar, and then to
close the loop with Multiply (Roundmode=ON) at the end of the second
bar.  This will create the loop as two cycles.  Then just multiply it
out to 19.  This should also work if you're synced to a drum machine but
using Loop3.

In Loop4, you could set 8ths/Cycle to 2 with Quantize=8ths, record it as
a two-bar cycle, and then when you multiply it out end Multiply with
Record during the 19th cycle (the cycle count will read 9).  This will
redefine the loop as a single cycle, so you would then have to change
8ths/cycle to 19 to be able to quantize to the end of each bar.  I'd
probably go with the first method.


Happy Camping,

P.S. Thanks Andre :)
