At Beginning/End of Clip Actions
under review

Description:
Introduce the ability to trigger actions at specific positions in a clip's playback cycle – most importantly, each time the clip reaches the start ("12 o'clock") or the end. These actions would fire repeatedly on every loop cycle, rather than just on initial playback.
Problem:
Currently, Loopy Pro can trigger actions like Play only once when playback begins. However, there's no way to automate events at the start or end of each loop cycle. This limits creative possibilities like synced effects, clip behavior changes, or layered automation tied precisely to clip looping.
Proposed Solution:
– Add a new action condition: “At Clip Start (Loop Point)” and optionally “At Clip End”
– Actions can re-trigger every time the clip loops back to the beginning
– Works similarly to Play-triggered actions, but executes on every cycle
– Allows conditional behaviors, such as muting, effect toggles, or automation, to sync with clip looping
– Integrate with clip quantization settings for tight sync
Benefits:
✅ Enables loop-synced automation and effects
✅ Allows for creative, cyclic control of plugins and mix states
✅ Ideal for live performance where hands-free automation is needed
✅ Expands action timing options beyond one-shot triggers
✅ Helps align Loopy Pro with common looping workflows in other DAWs
