As a verb, the act of playing the same section over and over As a noun, a chunk of audio that's played over and over Also an effect routing that adds an effect to a signal by sending a copy of the signal to an effect, and mixing the effect's output with the original signal
A group of semantically related segments The NAD loop, which includes segments NAD to CTA for name and address information, is an example of a loop Loops may be nested within other loops If the requirement designator of the first segment in a loop is mandatory (M), then at least one iteration of the loop is required If a loop is used, the first segment shall be used for each iteration of the loop Mandatory segments within a loop are mandatory only if the loop is used
A loop is an element of the STAR grammar In order to encode a vector or table of data, an individual data item or a group of data items within the same category may be preceded by a loop_ token The list of data item names can then be followed by repeated rows of data values The number of data values must be an exact multiple of the number of data items CIF and mmCIF do not permit the nesting of loops The following example builds a small table of atomic positions loop_ _atom_site type_symbol _atom_site Cartn_x _atom_site Cartn_y _atom_site Cartn_z _atom_site id N 25 369 30 691 11 795 1 C 25 970 31 965 12 332 2 C 25 569 32 010 13 808 3 O 24 735 31 190 14 167 4
1 Typically a complete electrical circuit 2 The loop is also the pair of wires that winds its way from the central office to the telephone set or system at the customers office, home or factory (i e , 'premises' in telephony terms)
If someone is in the loop, they are part of a group of people who make decisions about important things, or they know about these decisions. If they are out of the loop, they do not make or know about important decisions. I think that the vice president was in the loop These activists don't want to feel out of the loop. the central business area of Chicago. The name comes from an elevated railway that forms a large circle or loop around the area
A loop is an edge that connects a vertex to itself (See the illustration for degree which has a graph with three loops ) See pseudograph for a formal definition of loop
If something loops somewhere, it goes there in a circular direction that makes the shape of a loop. The helicopter took off and headed north. Then it looped west, heading for the hills
The cable pair which connects the customer to the switching center (ex: central office, main PABX) This path is called a loop because it is generally two wires out to the customer which are electrically tied together through the terminal set (device, instrument) when the device goes off-hook, creating a continuous path, or "loop "
to repeat a sequencer pattern or portion of an audio sample repeatedly The point to which the program returns, whether the beginning or some other point, is usually definable by the user
A siding that had access from both ends Sometimes long lengths of track parallel to main line, that allowed fast train to pass a slow one Sometimes a short length of track that allows a Locomotive to run around the coaching stock
For the purposes of this project, the loop includes all of the equipment that constitutes and supports the electrical circuit between the telecommunication providers switch port in the central office or collocation facility and the end user premises This includes the cabling, drop wire, poles, conduits, and interface device on the customer premises The switch port is not considered to be part of the loop
anything with a round or oval shape (formed by a curve that is closed and does not intersect itself) fasten or join with a loop; "He looped the watch through his belt"
An option in a sample that allows you to repeat a sample at a certain point when it reaches a certain point in the sample In other words, a way to repeat a sample forever The basic sample loop simply loops the sample from a previous point in the sample when the sample reaches a designated end point; this is called a forward loop or a sustain loop Other types of loops include the reverse loop (a loop where the sample loops from a point near the end of the sample to a point near the beginning; in other words, reverse of the forward loop) and the bi-directional or ping-pong loop (a loop that plays from the starting point to the ending point, reverses and plays from the ending point to the starting point, and continues ping-ponging back and forth) Some samplers allow two loops: a loop for sustaining a note, and a second loop when a note-off message is received (called the release loop) Also: In a sequencer, an option that allows you to repeat a sequence infinitely
Any recurring action the facilitator operates with Like, asking a question and getting an answer is a loop Starting a subject, working on it, and completing it is a loop
If you loop something such as a piece of rope around an object, you tie a length of it in a loop around the object, for example in order to fasten it to the object. He looped the rope over the wood He wore the watch and chain looped round his neck like a medallion
Note the two different meanings! A loop in a graph is an edge whose two vertices are the same A loop is a quasigroup containing an element e which is an identity for the operation (that is, ae=ea=a holds for all elements a ) If the elements are 1, ,n, with e=1, then the Cayley table is a normalised Latin square
a flight maneuver; aircraft flies a complete circle in the vertical plane an intrauterine device in the shape of a loop a computer program that performs a series of instructions repeatedly until some specified condition is satisfied the basic pattern of the human fingerprint an inner circle of advisors (especially under President Reagan); "he's no longer in the loop"
A technique used by solo musicians to layer performances in real time It started with an actual loop of tape on a tape recorder whose erase head had been disabled By recording on this loop of tape, a musician could play along with parts played previously Complex variations on this scheme, using multiple tape recorders and other manipulations, were used by many musicians, including Robert Fripp and Brian Eno Now digital technology has replaced the tape loop, and many musicians are using digital looping devices that have been built specifically to allow accompanying oneself The term is also used in sampling to mean repeating a segment of digitally recorded sound to sustain a note, or to repeat a few bars of a rhythm
{i} rope (or cord, thread, etc.) which has curved and doubled over itself leaving a circular opening; something which has a curved or circular shape; intrauterine device shaped like a loop; type of stunt performed by an airplane
1 The almond shaped section of the trace in a compulsory figure smaller than the corresponding circle within which it is skated 2 Any compulsory figure consisting of two circles in which a smaller loop is executed midway around each circle of the figure
A network path that passes the same node twice Loops cannot be analyzed using traditional network analysis techniques such as CPM and PERT Loops are allowed in GERT
A piece of material that plays over and over In a sequencer, a loop repeats a musical phrase In a sampler, loops are used to allow samples of finite length to be sustained indefinitely
A Loop is a closed path in an electrical circuit Specifically, a customer loop, i e , a pair of wires connecting the customer equipment to the Central Office (CO) equipment
