D Control how much the grains should overlap each other with the Overlap knob.
This sets how much the grains should overlap each other and also the crossfade amount. At 0% you get no over-
lap and almost no crossfade at all. At 100% you get the longest overlaps and also smooth crossfades between the
grains.
D Set the playback position deviation with the Jitter knob.
The Jitter function modulates the sample playback position minutely and randomly. The Jitter function can be
great for generating “chorus”-like effects and to make a sound more “alive”, depending on the other settings in the
sound. At 0%, the timing and playback position is completely accurate and at 100% it is completely random.
D Set how much you want the grains to be panned in the stereo panorama with the Spread knob.
0% means the signal will be unaffected and 100% means every other grain will be panned hard left and hard right.
Great for nice and wide stereo effects!
Slices
This section is mainly useful when you are working in Slice Mode (see “Slice Mode”).
q Even though slices are the core of Slice mode, they are available in the other modes too. They can be used for
snapping the Start position (see “Setting the sample start and end”) - either when you drag it manually or
when you modulate or automate it.
Sensitivity
Slices are added automatically at transients according to the Sensitivity knob setting.
D Turn the Sensitivity knob to increase or decrease the number of automatically detected slices.
Automatically generated slice markers are indicated in yellow.
• In Slice Mode the number of available keys changes according to the number of slices in the loop. For exam-
ple, if there are 10 slices in the loop, the first 10 notes (counted upwards from C1) are used. If the loop contains
15 slices, the first 15 notes are used, and so on:
