Quick loop sampler

Using the Slice function
Slice is a function that divides a sample (whose playback
mode is set to Loop) into eight to sixteen segments, and
adjusts the timing of each segment so that it can be
played at a different tempo without affecting the pitch.
Here’s how you can use the Slice function to play a sam-
pled phrase at the tempo of the current song.
Tip!
Tip!
The Slice function always handles the playback region of
the sample as one measure. Before using the Slice func-
tion, you must trim the playback region of the sample so
that it is one measure long.

SLICE
Turns the Slice function on/off. If this is on, you can
specify the number of segments into which the sam-
ple will be divided. If the playback mode is not set
to Loop mode, this will be displayed as “–” and
cannot be changed.
B
BPM
Indicates the tempo calculated by considering the
playback region of the sample as one measure. This
field is for display only, and cannot be edited.
C
MONITOR TEMPO
Selects the basic tempo that will be used for playing
the phrase sample when the recorder is stopped.
This item only affects a sample whose playback
mode is set to LOOP. While the recorder is running,
the tempo of the song will be used.

.................................The playback region of the sample
will be divided into eight equal
segments.

...............................The playback region of the sample
will be divided into twelve equal
segments.
16
...............................The playback region of the sample
will be divided into sixteen equal
segments.
Tip!
Tip!
• Normally when you use the Slice function, you will
select the number of segments based on the shortest
note value in the original phrase. For example you
would use a setting of 16 if the shortest note value in
the original phrase is a sixteenth note, a setting of 12
for eighth note triplets, or a setting of 8 for eighth
notes.
• If the Slice function is OFF, the waveform will play from
the beginning of the measure without being divided. If
the waveform is longer than one measure, it may not
play completely.

Move the cursor to the MONITOR TEMPO
field, and turn the [DATA/JOG] dial to select
SONG.
The MONITOR TEMPO field selects one of the fol-
lowing as the basic tempo at which the phrase will
be played if you play the sample while the recorder
is stopped.

shown in the BPM field

location.
