[RWP] Time Selection and Trimming Midi Loops

[indigo]

Maybe this is obvious to you, but I just now got it.
I have a midi loop that is 2 beats too long, so it loops with a silent 
gat at the end.
I pressed the home key; and hear 1 measure, 1 beat.
I pressed the end key; and hear 9 measure 2 beat, which is the end of 
the item.
I can  estimate  the silent gap was those 2 extra beats.
I pressed home and set beginning of loop with alt+left bracket.
I pressed end and again hear 9 measure 2 beats.
I hold shift and press page up twice to back up 2 beats; so I'm now at 9 
measures.
I press alt+right bracket to set end of loop.
When I play the loop with looping set with ctrl+R; it loops perfectly, 
so the extra 2 measures are excluded from the time selection, but they 
are still included in the item, just not selected.
How to trim off the extra 2 beats after the 9 measure loop:
I press shift+S to split the item into 2 items.
Now I have 2 items, the first item with my 9 measure loop, the second 
item with the silent 2 measures.
While on the selected track, I press ctrl+right arrow once and hear the 
first item announced.
I press ctrl+right arrow again and hear the second item announced.
I press delete and the second item is deleted.
I save the project with the now perfect 9 measure loop.
