2. Press Button 3 to select SLICE to open the SLICE tab.
3. Turn Knob 1 to select Manual mode.
4. Press Pad 1 to add the first Slice to the sample.
5. Press Pad 2 to add the second slice point.
6. Continue to press subsequent pads as they flash to add more slices.
→ When playback of the sample stops you may fine-tune the start and end points of your
slices by entering EDIT mode.
Press SHIFT + MUTE if you want to stop playback of a long sample.
Press SHIFT + Button 7 and 8 to access each bank of Slices.
17.4.3.2 Delete All Slices
The DELETE ALL option in SAMPLING EDIT mode is a quick and convenient way to delete all
Slices at once from a sample using your controller.
17.4.4 Manually Adjusting Your Slices
In addition to the Detect, Split, Grid, and Manual modes that create Slices automatically (see
section ↑17.4.2, Adjusting the Slicing Settings above), you can also adjust Slices manually us-
ing your mouse, the waveform display, and the various edit tools at your disposal.
You can directly adjust your Slices manually by selecting Manual in the MODE selector, or start
from MASCHINE’s proposed Slices as described in section ↑17.4.2, Adjusting the Slicing Settings
and fine-adjust these Slices manually — in that case the MODE selector automatically switches to
Manual.
