I don't see anything about it in the manual...

I'd like to loop a pad in a drum rack repeatedly until I stop it. I see loop as a playback effect, but it only goes to 500ms. There is an offset control but it's not clear what it's doing and it's not in the manual.

Any way to do this?

Is it possible to auto mark a sample to be split on increments of bars? Reading the manual I’m not seeing a way but wanted to be sure. Thanks!

I'm a Move user, but I'm staring to use Live to chop songs into samples and then into Move presets. Not into making finished tracks, not yet, possibly never so the mastering and all of that stuff is not important right now. I'm wondering if there's any sampling related features in standard/suite that would be worth the upgrade.

I've been through the comparison table and they list 'audio slicing' as a standard/suite only feature, but going through the manual there isn't a listing for it. It's described as "Slice audio to a Drum Rack or Sampler instance." but I think I'm doing that already in Intro. So what is it?

I have Logic Pro and use its stem separation when I've needed it - backing tracks for my daughter - and it's fine.

Are there any other sampling related features I should consider upgrading for?

Thanks!
