Editing the sample of a pad

Editing the sample of a pad

Splitting a sample among several
pads—Divide Sample

Sometimes after sampling an extended performance, you may wish to divide the
sample into two parts, and assign them to separate pads as new samples. The Divide
Sample function lets you do this. This is convenient when you wish to record a
sample without pausing, and then later divide it into shorter samples and assign
them to pads.

Specifying a division point and dividing a sample in two

1. Set the end point of the original sample at the location where you wish to divide

the sample.

“Setting the points” (p. 78)

Alternatively, you can press [TEMPO MATCH] and then press CURSOR [
