The green marker and red marker are the start point and end point (respectively). These two points
define the region of the sample that will be played.
To move the start point or end point of the selected region, do either of the following:
• Tap and drag its marker left or right.
• Use the Start or End fields shown below the waveform.
• Use the first bank Q-Link Knobs to adjust the start point or the second bank of Q-Link Knobs to
adjust the end point. The top-most Q-Link Knob provides coarse adjustment. The bottom-most Q-
Link Knob provides fine adjustment.
Tip: A recorded sample may have some silence at the beginning or end, which makes it difficult to time
it correctly in a musical context. Fix this by adjusting the start point. You can also adjust end point to
remove any extra silence or unwanted audio at the end. In addition to making your workflow easier,
having a “tight,” well-edited sample can enhance your production or performance.
You can use Sample Edit Mode in three different ways: Trim Mode, Chop Mode, or Program Mode.
The options for each mode are slightly different. Please refer to the following Trim Mode, Chop Mode,
and Program Mode parts of this chapter to learn how each works.
Tip: You can use Trim Mode for a specific slice of the sample, previously created and selected in Chop
Mode. This allows for a more detailed view of a single slice than in Chop Mode and gives you more options
for auditioning the slice. You can easily switch between Trim Mode and Chop Mode while doing this.
To use both Trim Mode and Chop Mode to edit a sample slice:
1. Tap Trim/Chop at the bottom edge of the touchscreen so it says Chop.
2. Set all fields as desired to create your sample slices.
3. Select the desired slice.
4. Tap Trim/Chop at the bottom edge of the touchscreen so it says Trim. The region you are now
editing is indicated by the normal start point and end point markers rather than slice markers.
5. Tap Trim/Chop at any time to return to Chop Mode.
