Moving a Slice Marker
D To adjust the timing of a single note or beat, just click and drag its Slice Marker to the desired position.
If Snap is on, the Slice Marker will snap to the grid as set with the Snap value. When you move a Slice Marker, the
slices on either side of it will be stretched accordingly.
Moving several Slice Markers
If you need to adjust the timing of several notes or beats (e.g. move all snare hits a little later in the beat), proceed as
follows:
1. Select the desired Slice Markers as described in “Selecting Slices and Slice Markers”.
2. Click and drag the Slice Group Handle to move all selected Slice Markers.
As you hover over the Slice Group Handle, the arrow switches to a double-arrow
All selected Slice Markers will be moved as a group. The Slices between the selected Slice Markers and their clos-
est unselected Slice Markers will be stretched.
• It’s also possible to move a range of Slices by selecting a range of Slice Markers as described in “Selecting
Slices and Slice Markers” and then dragging the Slice Group Handle sideways.
This is useful if you want to move a whole phrase (e.g. a vocal phrase) later or earlier in the clip.
! You cannot move the selection past any unselected Slice Markers.
Stretching a range of Slices
It is also possible to stretch a range of Slices, proportionally, in an “accordion style” fashion:
1. Select the desired range of Slice Markers as described in “Selecting Slices and Slice Markers”.
The range is indicated by a light gray Stretch Range Marker above the waveform.
D If you drag the start or end Slice Marker in the range, the whole range will be stretched as if it were a single
slice:
D If you drag a Slice Marker within the selected range, all selected Slices will be stretched proportionally against
the start and end Slice Markers of the selected range:
