Listen at the loop point — you'll hear a click.
How to fix a gap in an audio loop
A gap in a loop is almost always silence hiding at the start or end of the file — a fade-out, a moment of quiet, or ends that simply don't meet. Your player faithfully repeats that empty space every cycle. Loop Music trims to where the audio actually meets and aligns the ends in about 20 seconds, so the pause disappears.

A loop should repeat with no gap and no click
Hear the pause a raw file repeats — then the same track looped with the gap removed.
Real processing takes about 20 seconds.
Same loop point — now smooth and click-free.
🎧 Best with headphones. Real audio: the loop point (where the end meets the start) plays in the middle of each clip.

Fixing loop gaps: common questions
Why loops pause on repeat — and how to fix it.
How do I fix a gap in an audio loop?
Re-upload the file to Loop Music and click Create loop. Loop Music trims the silence at the ends and aligns them, so the track repeats with no pause — about 20 seconds start to finish.
You don't have to hunt for the silence manually; the algorithm finds where the audio actually starts and ends.
Why does my loop have a pause or gap?
There's silence at the start or end of the file — often a fade-out — so the player repeats that empty space. Loop Music removes it by trimming to where the audio meets.
The gap sounds the same in any player because the silence lives in the file itself.
Is the gap caused by my player settings?
No. The player just repeats the file. If the ends don't meet, every loop gaps. Loop Music fixes the file so the ends align and the pause disappears.
That's why the same file gaps in VLC, OBS and a browser alike.
Do I need to re-edit the track myself?
No — Loop Music handles the trimming and alignment for you. Just upload the file that gaps and download the seamless version.
The free plan includes five loops a month, enough to repair your existing loops.
