Ableton/Live/UG/31 Instrument Reference/07 Impulse/01 Sample Slots
- Drag samples into slots from the browser or the Session and Arrangement Views, or hot-swap them;
Delete (Mac) / Backspace (Win) removes one. - Slots map to C3 through the octave above, leftmost first. With Fold on, the MIDI Editor lists all eight slots. A Pitch device transposes the mapping; a Scale device rearranges it.
- Each slot has its own parameters, shown when you click it. Changes, including automation and clip envelopes, apply only from the next note; for continuous changes during a note use Ableton/Instrument/Simpler.
- Slot 8's Link button ties it to slot 7 so each cuts the other off, as a closed hi-hat silences an open one.
- Hovering a slot shows play, solo, mute and hot-swap.
