    If you have repeats with 1st and 2nd time endings, DS perhaps etc. the form of the sequence once through can get complicated - especially if you are wanting to loop somewhere near the end of the song (hence the suggestion to copy and paste what you want as a loop into a separate song.)

    If you turn on Playback location (perhaps slow the speed if it is fast) you can see the bars as it plays. Just count as it plays each bar, but just keep on counting up the numbers for each bar it goes to ... even if it repeats.

    Example:
    4 bar intro
    A section 8 bars repeated
    B section 8 bars
    C section 8 bars

    The first bar of the B section is calculated as:
    4 + 16 + 1 = 21
    The first bar of the C section is 29.

    Make a note of which two bar numbers you need to know for your loop.
    Then set the speed, loop bars and practice.
