Quantize Note

Sets the note value on which the quantize grid of the effects is based.

By clicking these buttons during playback, you can apply effects to your overall performance.

An effect is applied as long as you keep the button pressed.

Note

The effects can be automated. The automation of effect parameters is described in the “Operation Manual”.

Plays the slice in reverse.

Tapestart

Simulates a tapestart, that is, speeds the slice up.

Scratch

Plays the slice as if scratched.

Tapestop 1

Simulates a tapestop, that is, slows the slice down, first lightly then abruptly.

Tapestop 2
