Slices Menu
The Slices menu sets the resolution for the creation of markers, or the “slicing” of
the looped clip. This menu uses note lengths, so the settings are:
• Whole notes
•Half notes
• Quarter notes
• Eighth notes
• Sixteenth notes
• Thirty-second notes
The automatic markers appear at the note resolutions according to the slider
setting. At the eighth note setting, there are eight markers per measure.
This control works well for slicing audio that has more subtle changes in volume
with few dramatic transients.
The markers in a loop clip preserve the timing of the audio at that moment. Too
few or too many markers can cause unwanted “artifacts” when a loop clip is
stretched.
Trans Detect (%)
The Trans Detect control senses transients in your audio clip and assigns a
marker at the beginning and end of each one it finds. As the you increase the
sensitivity (by using larger numbers) smaller transients are detected and the
number of markers increases.
