Zone 2, Level 4 (EDIT BANK\LOOP MODE 1)

LEVEL OVERVIEW
Here you can set Start and End points for the Wave to Loop around. Looping can be in two directions, Forward or Forward\Reverse. Setting Loop Points prevents Waves from Terminating on Key release to create endless Sustain Effects. Natural and Synthetic Waveforms have individual characteristics, experience with different Wave types will aid Glitch Free Loop Point finding, but generally Auto Looping is quicker (see Zone 2 Level 5 Edit Bank\Auto Looping).
