single cycle waveform loop

single cycle waveform loop

Thanks Daniel, I think I got it.

But just to confirm, if you upload a single cycle waveform you can loop it 
like if it was a normal PCM synth right? No clicks or weird formats 
required?

Can someone make a quick test with a simple sine wave just to check how 
reliably this works? If you get a smooth loop going on, with no crappy 
artifacts.

If this works well, I'm upgrading tomorrow! :)

You need a looped WAV or AIFF if you want to transfer with C6. There
is a minimum loop length of 150 samples, beside that there shouldn't
be any limits or weird stuff happening while playing loops.

...if you didn't already place your order during the friend offer
you'd have a hard time doing so. We are out of upgrade boards (and
resources for upgrading) for the time being, but hope to be back with
a general public upgrade offer maybe in August. We need to ride this
big friend upgrade wave out first.
