Template repeats

In the Rythm Templates of NWC2 there are rythms that repeat 150 times.  Does anyone know how that is done?
It would be nice if one could create repeat rythms and accompaniment tracks to use in midi synthesizers.

Those are "Local Repeats."  They are created with Insert Bar Line (or just press B), and you can set the number of repetitions when creating the Local Repeat Close bar line.  If you want to change the number of repeats later, just highlight the Local Repeat Close bar line and use Control-E to adjust the settings.

Nice!  - Thanks David.  I'm going to have to use that feature real soon! I wasn't able to find that anywhere in the Help file.

Happy to help.

I found the local repeat useful for swing tempo.  Just needed to insert the tempo variances for one bar, then repeat it ad nauseum (= the number of bars in the tune).
