Defining a Cycle With Markers
Dragging a marker into the top part of the Bar ruler creates a cycle with the marker’s
length. Details on creating and using markers is covered in Chapter 6, “
Working With
Markers ,” on page 123.
You can also use one of the following key commands:
 Set Locators by Marker and Enable Cycle: Sets the cycle to the currently selected
marker and activates Cycle mode. The length of the cycle is determined by the
marker length.
 Set Locators by Next Marker and Enable Cycle: Sets the cycle to the next marker and
activates Cycle mode.
 Set Locators by Previous Marker and Enable Cycle: Sets the cycle to the previous
marker and activates Cycle mode.
Note: These commands are ideally suited for repeating passages during live
performances. Define markers for all parts of the project that you might want to repeat
in this way during your performance.
