Parameter Description
SLICER Section
MODE Here you can select either Split, Grid, Detect or Manual:
Detect mode: The Sample will be sliced according to its transients.
Split mode: The Sample will be sliced into equally spread Slices.
Grid mode: The Sample will be sliced according to note values.
Manual mode: Manually enter slice points using the pads on your
controller, or adjust the start and end points of a slice.
SLICES (Split and
Grid mode only)
When MODE is set to Split (see above), SLICES lets you choose the
amount of Slices: 4, 8, 16 or 32.
When MODE is set to Grid (see above), SLICES lets you choose the
length of the Slices in note values: 4th, 8th,16th or 32nd notes.
AUTO-SNAP (Manual
mode only)
The Sample Slicer Manual mode Auto-Snap feature automatically
aligns Slice points to the nearest transient as you manually trigger
the slicing from the pads. It can be turned off so that slice points are
instead placed exactly where you trigger them. In order to use Auto-
Snap, you must wait for analysis to be performed on the sample
you’re slicing—the analysis is very quick but will take longer for long
audio files.
SENSITIVITY (Detect
mode only)
When MODE is set to Detect (see above), SENSITIVITY lets you
adjust the sensitivity of the transient detection. Higher values will
cause more Slices to be detected because more transients will be
recognized, lower values will result in less Slices. This parameter
should be adjusted until all the musically significant slices are being
detected in the waveform.
