Default Click in Audio

Hi. Using Cuase SX. I'm trying to loop an audio part that I recenly
recorded. I've
recorded the audio (it's a bass guitar loop) and then cut and paste
duplicate copies of the audio on the same track.

I hear a click as the audio goes from one copied part to the next.
There is no click in the original recording. Is this something with
my
computer or audio gear? Any suggestions to get rid of this?

Thanks,

This often (but not always) happens because of one of two things (or both):

1 The point in the source Wave file at which you have cut the audio you
are duplicating is not at a 'zero crossing' point and the differences in
audio levels cause a jump in level when it gets to the next instance. Use
Snap to Zero Crossing
2 The audio wave file still has DC offset which needs to be eliminated -
you can get rid of DC Offset in Wavelab or most other decent audio editors

There can also be other causes related to audio buffers. You will probably
find that the clicks aren't there when you do an audio mixdown if this is
the case

Doesn´t SX1 also have the function to get rid of DC offset? SX3 definitely
does...

Besides that, you might look for "Auto-Fade settings" - in SX3, you can set
auto-fades and lengths for fade-ins/-outs and of course auto-cross-fades. I
don´t remember, if SX1 had something like that, but if it does, it should be
useful to switch "Auto-Crossfades" on...

Possibly. I can't remember that far back, and I can't be bothered
reinstalling SX1 just to find out :-)

I think it's a bad cut problem and not an audio interface one...
in the first loop (the one u'll copy) try to set a good fade in&out, a
very small one of course or try a crossfade (pressing x after the
samples selection)between adjacent clips.
