Note:
► On the traditional keyboard, the last slice will be played for all notes above the
last slice. Nothing will play for notes below C2.
► If you use the Grid-based keyboard with a slicer pad, the slices are mapped to
the notes available in the selected scale.
► The steps above show a simple example of using Keys alone to trigger different
slices within one pad. You can use this with Loop Mode ON with Launch Modes
of Gate or Toggle to achieve different effects. You could also use this with Slice
Seq if you wanted to have the Slice Seq control what slices play when a pad
trigger is received.
