Can I crossfade within a region to create audio loop in Logic Pro?

Newbie Logic user - I see that crossfades are designed to smooth the transition from one region to the next. In this case, the entire piece is just one region, and I want it to loop continuously. One solution I can think of is to just copy and paste the region until it is as long as I want it to play and then use crossfades between each copy.


That seems to create a large file if I want it to play for 10-15 minutes or longer where a single smooth loop playing repeatedly would be much smaller. Kinda like turning the region into a oceanwave background sound.


While size is a consideration, smoothing the transition from end back to the beginning is my primary interest.


Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

You can

• create the "one" region

• loop the region to the end by enabling Loop in the Region Inspector or using the key command

• Control+Click the created loops and Convert > Convert Loops to Regions

select all regions and create a X-Fade for all regions simultanously in the Region Inspector > Type > Fade Out > X (Crossfade) and set a number (size) Fade Out > yourSize

select the first region and create a Fade-In in the Region Inspector > Fade In > and set a number (size)

• select the last region and create a Fade-Out in the Region Inspector > Type > Out and set a number (size) Fade Out > yourSize
