# Working with audio loops

## Getting loops

You can find loops all around the internet, including [Muse Hub](https://www.musehub.com/).

You also can manually convert a section of a song to a loop.

{% endcontent-ref %}

## Adjusting loops to the project

When importing a loop to the project, Audacity will automatically attempt to match the tempo. If it's unable to, you can instead adjust the tempo yourself by holding `Alt` (macOS: `Option)`and dragging the edge of a clip to stretch it to fit.

{% endcontent-ref %}

Additionally, if the loop is in a different key to your project, you can also select a clip, and press `Alt+↓↑` to adjust the pitch by semitones.

## Repeating loops

Audacity does not feature a looping feature as known from traditional DAWs at this point. Instead, you can repeat via **copy-pasting** the loop, or using the **Effects -> Special -> Repeat** effect.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://support.audacityteam.org/music/working-with-audio-loops.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
