Consecutive Actions could be a great solution to some use cases where you need to sequence different categories of sound after one another, and they’re at different lengths, yet have randomization.

Examples:

- Breathing - going between randomly varied inhalations and exhalations
- Music - a 15 second delay between randomly picked music washes that have different lengths

… however there isn’t a way to make an action loop itself. Would a “jump action” be a feasible new feature? (jump to action A). They would be especially powerful if you could give them conditions. For example the breathing, you could jump from a peaceful breathing sequence to winded / stressed breathing sequence based on a stamina parameter. And even if the inhalation and exhalation wavs were of different lengths, they would gaplessly sequence one after another.

This kind of arrangement could be done on a timeline with transitions, but randomizing the destinations, or playing random variations that have different lengths but should sequence by length would be complicated to implement.

The ability to loop consecutive action sheets is an interesting idea, as is the ability to place conditional jumps in a sequential playlist. I’ll add both of these suggestions to our feature/improvement tracker.
