can anybody out there please tell me how can i loop a beat i make on my casio ctk-671. i have a computer and some good software so i though i could loop it on there but when i try to loop it on the computer like i would play the beat i made from my keybaord and it is about just say 15 seconds and then i copy it and paste it on another track and try to put it right next to the beat i recorded first but it seems to always come before it needed to come or it come to early or a pause will be in it ive tried about everything if anybody can tell me anyway i can get a beat i make to loop can u please tell me. im about to get a zoom 123 so i can use there drumkits instead of the keyboard so maybe i can just worry about looping the instrument part of the keyboard. if anybody can help me it would glady be appreciated
 
What program are you using to loop the material ?
 
When "looping" your material. You should start the loop directly before the first beat, then end it right before the beginning of the first beat again. Do you understand, what I just said?

OK, truncate the material before the beginning of beat #1. Once the material is about to repeat, truncate everything afterwards. Did that make a little more sense?

If not, post us back. ;)
 
Now, that I am re-reading your post, I see that you need to get an EDITOR (check one of the previus posts).

I use Sound Forge 5.0.

You will need to work on your "editing" skills. ;)
