Press [CHOP] (F5), to enable the Slice function. More<br />

[SLICE].<br />

The cursor jumps into the field 'St' <strong>and</strong> 16 regions of<br />

equal length are created (default). If you want to keep<br />

to increase or decrease the number of regions, press<br />

[SLICE] again. The cursor jumps into the 'Slice' field<br />

Move the DATA wheel left to decrease the number of<br />

slices (min. 2) or right to increase it (max. 64), until it<br />

fits the sample (here 7.8). Press [SLICE] again to store<br />

the settings. To abort or start over press [CANCEL].<br />

To fine tune the start- <strong>and</strong> endpoint of a region, move<br />

the cursor to the 'St' or 'End' field <strong>and</strong> turn the DATA<br />

wheel. To select a region, move the cursor t (to Start)<br />

or u (to End), then press the same button again (tt or<br />

uu) to skip through the regions, then edit them.<br />

If you want to split a region into two, press DIVIDE. To<br />

combine two regions, simply change the start or end<br />

point of a region with the DATA wheel until you reach<br />

the next slice mark <strong>and</strong> cross it, or press COMBINE.<br />

Make sure you select the direction ('St' for left <strong>and</strong><br />

'End' for right) of regions you want to combine!<br />

After you've set up all your regions, press [EDIT] (F6),<br />

select the release time of the samples <strong>and</strong> if a new<br />

program shall be created. Press [DO IT] (F6). DONE.<br />

TIPS:<br />

• Use the BAR buttons (< >) in the LOCATE<br />

section of the MPC, or [Shift] + t or u to zoom in<br />

<strong>and</strong> out along the time line.<br />

• You can use the [NUMERIC] Button to enter<br />

values for start <strong>and</strong> end points to jump quickly to<br />

a certain position.<br />

• For quiet sections of a sample, use p or q to<br />

zoom in <strong>and</strong> out of the volume axis.<br />

• To undo DIVIDE or COMBINE actions, perform<br />

the opposite operation.<br />

• Start editing the start point of the first slice, then<br />

press u <strong>and</strong> jump to the end of the next region<br />

<strong>and</strong> edit its endpoint <strong>and</strong> so forth to speed up the<br />

editing process.<br />
