If you set the Convert To field to Assign slice to a pad ,
the pad will simply refer to the slice in this sample instead
of creating a new sample. This is useful for reducing clutter
in your project.
Important
: Assigning a sample to a pad in this way will
replace the sample on the first layer of the pad.
Use the
Pad field to select the desired pad. Alternatively,
press the desired pad.
Use the
Slice Type field to select how the pad’s layer
settings will be set when the slice is assigned to it (see
Program Edit Mode
to learn more about the
parameters mentioned below):
•
Non-Destructive Slice : The pad’s Slice setting
will be set to the slice number.
•
Pad Parameters : The pad’s Slice setting will be
set to Pad . The Pad Start and Pad End will be set
to the slice’s start point and end point values, and
the
Loop Position will be set to the slice’s start
point but with Pad Loop deactivated.
Use the
Program field to specify the program to which
you want to add the slice.
To convert the sample , tap Do It .
To cancel the operation
, tap
Close
.
If you set the
Convert To field to Make new sample , this
will create a new sample in your project. (The original
sample will remain as it is.)
Important
: Assigning a sample to a pad in this way will
replace the sample on the first layer of the pad.
Use the
Pad field to select the desired pad. Alternatively,

Check the
Crop Sample box to delete the unused
parts from the sample when it’s created and assigned.
This feature is destructive, though the project will still
contain your original sample.
Leave this box unchecked to keep the unused parts of
the sample when it is created and assigned. This way,
you will still be able to edit the entire sample further
even though you are using only part of it at the moment.
Use the
Program field to specify the program to which
you want to add the slice.
