Loops
Looping a sound allows you to repeat a section of the sample indefinitely in order to create a sustain of unlimited length. Instrumental sounds in samplers rely on looping organ sounds, for example.
Loop Refinement
A basic loop can contain clicks or abrupt changes in timbre at the turning point. To create a seamless loop, you can refine the loop. Use the Loop Tweaker dialog to tweak an existing loop selection so that it loops perfectly or use it to create a loop from material which is not perfectly suited to create a loop.
Automatically Detecting Good Loop Points
The Loop Tweaker dialog can automatically search for good loop points.

Automatically Detecting Good Loop Points

The Loop Tweaker dialog can automatically search for good loop points.

Procedure

In the Audio Editor, select the loop that you want to refine by clicking between its loop start and loop end marker.
Select the Process tab.
In the Loop section, click Tweaker.
In the Loop Tweaker dialog, on the Loop Points Adjustment tab, make sure that Link Start and End Points is deactivated.
In the Automatic Search section, specify the Aimed Correspondence and the Search Accuracy.
Click the white arrow buttons to start the automatic search for a good loop point.

WaveLab Elements scans from the current point forwards or backwards, until it finds a point that matches. You can stop at any time by clicking the right mouse button. The program then jumps back to the best found match.
Check the loop by playing it back.
Optional: If you think there might be a better loop point, continue with the search.
