Continuous (non-looping) automation

Looped clips normally restart their content — including automation — every loop. Turn on Continuous mode to let automation curves run straight through the loop instead of resetting. This is how you add gradual variation and movement to a repeating part.

Turning on Continuous mode so automation curves keep evolving across a looped clip instead of restarting.
