Don't understand how loop points are supposed to work
Posted: Sat Apr 29, 2017 6:21 pm
Hi,
I am a brand new user, so please forgive me in advance if this is a dumb question.
I am having trouble understanding how loop points are supposed to work. I have a .WAV sample of a strings chord (about 12 seconds). It has a slow fade in (about 2 seconds) and a slow fade out (also about 2 seconds).
I loaded the sample in VA-Beast and went to the PCM Setup screen, then I edited the loop points like this:
Intro (2 seconds fade in) | Loop | Outro (2 seconds fade out)
I set the Play Mode to "Intro + Loop Forward + Outro".
What I expected is that when I press a key to play the sample, it will fade in then loop the middle part of the sample for as long as I hold the key. Then when I release the key, I think it should play the Outro / Fade Out part of the sample.
However, when I release the key, the sample stops playing immediately instead of fading out.
Am I doing something wrong, or am I misunderstanding how this is supposed to work?
Thank you.
