In the current version of Audacity, you can loop a sound by adding silence to the track to make it as long as you want, then using the Echo effect with a decay of 1.0. The next version of Audacity will have a "Repeat" effect specifically for looping selections.

It depends how the file is played on the website, what you really need is to add an option to the player which tells the browser to loop the file, in order to minimise the amount of bandwidth used.

Re: [Audacity-help] loop From: susan hilz <shilz@te...> - 2007-02-14 07:35 You're really going to make me ask aren't you? OK then, where do I find this option? Where do I download it from?Its not in the drop down menu on my player. The music I will be placing on my webiste will be in .swf format. I will loop the music in audacity (if i can figure it out) save it as an mp3 then I will convert the mp3 into an .swf file using another program. And voila load it onto my site. Any answers?

We don't know where you find any option as we don't know what player you are using - is it Adobe's Flash player? If you don't mind the bandwidth on your site you can simply loop the music in Audacity by preparing your selection (e.g. 15 seconds), then click in the Track Panel (where the Mute/Solo buttons are) and Effect > Repeat. This allows you to choose the number of times to repeat the selected area. So if you made 9 repeats you get a 150 second track containing 10 repeats. If you want instead to prepare your selection in Audacity then instead of Effect > Repeat, make it loop in the player (so in this example you only export a 15 second file from Audacity), you should not use MP3 as this format adds silence padding to the start and end of the track, which may leave an audible gap or click at the loop. Export to WAV or OGG and convert to SWF from that. If you cannot make the player loop files with its own commands you should be able to control the loop with embed tags in the webpage source: http://www.webreference.com/js/column20/embed.html Gale Andrews Outbound message virus free.
