Now, let's create a new Program containing all of these slices as individual samples. It will also
automatically create corresponding note events to play back these slices sequentially.

2. Use the Cursor Buttons to select the following parameters and use the Data Dial or -/+ buttons
select the value indicated as follows: Convert to Sliced Samples, Crop Samples to On, Create
New Program to On, Create Events to On, and Program to the same Program the original drum
loop was from.
3. Press F6 (Do It) to proceed. Each slice will be assigned to a pad, and each pad will have a
recorded note event in the Track. When you play that Track, it will play each pad (each slice) in the
original order.
