Ableton/Live/UG/36 Push 2/08 Working with Samples/01 Classic Playback Mode
- Start and End set the usable region of the sample, for example skipping silence at the start. S Start and S Length are percentages of that region: 50% and 25% play its third quarter. S Loop Length sets how much loops, when Loop is on.
- The Zoom encoder zooms the waveform around the last position control touched.
- Press Simpler's upper display button for Edit mode: lower buttons choose more parameter pages, upper buttons toggle settings; press again to leave.
- Loop On/Off — loop while a pad is held.
- Warp as… — fit Start to End into a number of bars; ÷2 and ×2 fix a wrong guess.
- Crop removes audio outside Start and End; Reverse plays the sample backwards. Both work on a copy, leaving the original file alone.
