I’ve been trying to create a perfect 4-second loop of music for my flash site using soundforge.

However when I export the file and open it again, there is a mysterious tiny quiet gap at the start of the file which ruins what was a perfect loop.

Can anyone recommend a method for turning a looping wav file into a working loop?
