How do you guys usually get loops to play seamlessly? Ive been having a hard time finding the zero crossing in all my loops. Any tips you guys have would be much appreciated.

Using a track with a steady hi-hat rhythm can make it easier to loop smoothly.

one way is to re-sample using the subsonic effect and create a faded tail -- I think yu turn knobs 1 and 2 all the way right (or it may be all way left (?lol)) - then you use knob 3 as a fader at end of your sample to fade down.

this tip came from most blunted and it changed the 404 for me enormously.

takes practice but it's well worth practising if you want keep everything on-board the 404

yu can tidy up all yr samples this way

saanother way I use is came from euclid on here - chop yr loop into "beats" then sequence them across yr bar/measure - of course yr transforming it into a pattern but thats pretty damn useful when you need a different bpm.

you may want to play a continuous noise (vinyl sim is yr saviour) under that pattern or muck around with reverb whatever..

and both techniques rock when you combined.

and they came from this forum :)
