Create loop from multiple tracks?

Let's say I have a full band recording (12 tracks or so).

I'm currently looping a little bit to workout ideas. Basically just using start/stop points with the memory cycle button on, etc. Works great!

However, I wonder... Is there a quick-ish way to create a real stereo mix of this loop? As opposed to copy/pasting that little bit in another track manually over and over again?

Maybe some sort of "fancy" bounce to disk operation? Where one can tell it to loop it x amount of times when bouncing?

Thanks for any advice!

Also, RE: manually creating a loop....

Is the ability to "throw" a track broken now or something? I'm on DP 10.13.

It's like it wants to do it (I see the hand tool but the track won't move when I throw it)? Is there a zoom-level restriction?

Or perhaps there is some other way to stick soundbites together so there's no gap between them?

You could just bounce the length of the loop if there's a corresponding time selection and their signal goes to the main out.

For the track "throw" you want I think you need to press Control while you drag the track.

You could record the loop mix once; then use the Repeat function on the recorded mix track to repeat as many times as you specify, then merge
