Slicing a loop

Prerequisite

To slice a loop, it is best to start with an empty kit.

Note

The maximum number of slices is 128. Therefore, it is recommended to start on a pad that is assigned to a lower note, so that enough empty pads are available.

Procedure

  1. Drop the audio loop on the instrument pad that you want to start with.
  2. Open the Slice tab and click Create Slices.

    If the number of slices exceeds the number of available pads, some slices cannot be mapped to instrument pads. These slices are shown in red in the waveform display. In this case, the loop plays only with the length of the mapped slices.

  3. Adjust the parameters on the Slice tab to create the best set of slices.

    Any changes that lead to more or less slices will create slices on or remove slices from pads.
