Settings in Chop Mode

In the software, this section lets you edit various parameters affecting

the start point and end point of your sample's slices:

• Slice is the number of the currently selected slice. Click a

slice in the Waveform Display to select it. (Remember that you

have to create slices before one can be selected.)

• Start defines the start point of the current slice. Click and drag the slice marker in the

Waveform Display left or right to change it. Alternatively, double-click somewhere in the

Waveform Display to create a start point there. Remember that the start point of a slice is also

the end point of the previous slice.

• End defines the end point of the current slice. Click and drag the slice marker in the Waveform

Display left or right to change it. Alternatively, double-click somewhere in the Waveform Display

to create an end point there. Remember that the end point of a slice is also the start point of the

next slice.

• Snap to Zero activates the snap-to-zero function. For easier sample editing, the software will

"force" you to place a start point or end point only at "zero-crossings." This can help to avoid

clicks and glitches when playing a sample.

• When Audition is activated, you can use the pads can to play the different slices. Each slice is

assigned to a pad automatically, starting from Pad A01 with Slice 1 and ascending from there. If

your sample contains more than 16 slices, use the Bank buttons to switch through the pad

banks to view all playable slices. Playing a slice will also select it.

• With Link Slices activated, changing the start point of a slice will also change the end points of

the previous slice. Similarly, changing the end point of a slice will also change the start point of

the next slice. Turn Link Slices off if you are trying to create slices that use non-contiguous

parts of the sample.
