Groove Clip dilema

I took a year break from recording and when I came back I forgot a few things. I remember using groove clips many times to extend pieces without having to actually play them. Now. I can't figure out this "beats in clip" thing. I have a one measure phrase that I want to repeat with two bars of space in between each phrase. I messed with the BIC thing for a long time and it keeps on just speeding it up or slowing down.
What am I doing wrong here??
Thanks for any help

just copy and paste it.

I guess I'm not clear what you're asking. Or, what Beagles video is showing.

What's a 'BIC thing'?


I never understood what the 'groove clips' window was for. Seems like a lot of work for nothin.


Anyway, I think you want to make a 3 measure loop?


So, create the 3 measure piece, bounce to clips, 
highlight it
hit alt/enter (or right clik/properties), 
select audio stretching (the second tab I think. not at my daw. might be enable strtching or something). 
The default 'beats' will probably be wrong. You want to enter 12 in the box (4 "beats" per measure X 3). 
hit enter. done. 
drag it out.
