16.4.3 Live Slicing
Live Slicing is a quick and intuitive way to add slices to a sample using the pads on your con-
troller. The  first pad  is used  to trigger  the sample  and the  subsequent pads  are used  to add
slice points as required. If necessary, the start and end points of the slices can then be fine-
tuned using Edit mode.
Live Slicing is only available from your MASCHINE controller.
