Page / Parameter Description
END (Knob 4) Adjusts the end point of the selected Slice. Hold SHIFT when turning
the Knob to adjust the parameter in finer increments. Note that
moving the end point of a Slice does not simultaneously move the
start point of the next Slice — in opposition to adjusting the START
parameter (see above).

MONO The Sample Slicer Mono option when activated automatically sets
the Voice and Choke Group of all sample slices to 1 when slicing to a
Group.
This time saving feature is useful when you don’t want to have lots of
samples triggered or repeating at the same time, for example, when
you slice a drum loop and trigger the individual hits to form a new
pattern. When Mono is selected and the slices are applied to a
Group, the sampler polyphony is automatically set to 1 so only one
voice will play at a time. The Choke Group is also automatically set to
1 so each new pad that is hit will always take priority over the
previous one by cancelling it out. This behavior can be found on
vintage drum machines (typically used to “choke” the open hi-hat
with the closed one), but also in monophonic synthesizers that are
only capable of playing one note at a time.
PATTERN
This will create a new pattern or replace the existing once the slices
have been applied.
BPM Available when Create or Replace is selected in the PATTERN
parameter. Selects how the tempo is defined: If you select Auto,
MASCHINE will calculate the tempo automatically. If you select
Manual, you can enter the tempo in BPM manually.
ADJUST Available when Create or Replace is selected in the PATTERN
parameter. If BPM is set to Auto, you can choose between the tempo
that MASCHINE detected, or half or double of that tempo. If BPM is
set to Manual, you can adjust the tempo manually.
