<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I selected an item, and quadrupled the length, and
had the loop Source checkbox checked. The result was absolutely no
change. If I cut the length in half, then the item plays, and cuts off
early as expected. But, making it longer had no effect at all.

<DIV><BR></DIV>Hmmm, no idea to be honest man. When I tried this workflow
and it<BR>didn't work last time, I assumed it was because the source
media<BR>wasn't recorded in that session so Reaper didn't have so much of
a<BR>handle on it, but thinking about it, that's probably a dumb thing
to<BR>think. Anyway, I just tried it again to build a trailing vocal
delay,<BR>and it didn't work here. I can tell that Reaper is extending the
item<BR>length by the right amount, but the audio itself isn't looping, so
the<BR>extention of length is just silence. The loop source checkbox
is<BR>checked in item properties.<BR><BR>Anyone know where we're going wrong
