Loop.
1. Choose the Clip Volume envelope, and unlink it from the sample.
The clip envelope's loop braces now appear colored to indicate this envelope
now has its own local loop/region settings. The loop/region controls in the
Envelopes box come to life.
2. Make sure the clip envelope's Loop switch is off. Notice the Sample box's Loop
switch is not affected. The sample will keep looping although the envelope is

3. Type 8 into the leftmost envelope loop-length value box.
4. Zoom the envelope display out all the way by clicking on the Envelope's time

Please note: toggling Linked Mode changes the envelope data. Toggling back and forth
