Setting and Using the Cycle
The upper portion of the Bar ruler contains the cycle stripe—shaded gray when
inactive, or green when active. The cycle acts as a set of playback markers (or locators).
When Logic is in Cycle mode, the playhead will continuously loop between the start
and end points of the cycle. The cycle can be placed anywhere in your project, and can
be of any length. Beyond playback duties, the cycle can also be used to define a
section of your project for editing operations. Details can be found in the Logic user
manual.
To activate or deactivate the cycle, do one of the following:
m Click the shaded gray cycle area in the top half of the Bar ruler (the cycle is green when
active).
A second click deactivates the cycle (returns to gray shading).
m Click the Cycle button on the Transport (green when active).
To move the cycle:
m Move the mouse over the middle of the cycle in the Bar ruler (the cursor will change to
a hand icon), and drag it to the right or left.
