Ableton/Live/UG/36 Push 2/08 Working with Samples/03 Slicing Mode
- Zoom, Start, End, Warp as…, ÷2, ×2 and Reverse work as in the other modes.
- Slice By chooses how slices are made:
- Transient — at transients; Sensitivity sets how many, up to 64.
- Beat — at the beat Division chosen.
- Region — a chosen number of equal slices.
- Manual — none automatically. Turn on Pad Slicing, play from a slice, tap an empty pad where a new slice should start (later pads shift up), and turn Pad Slicing off when done.
- Slices fill the left half of the grid from the bottom left in rows of four going up, then the right half the same way.
- The grid uses the 64-pad drum layout; Layout cycles to Loop Selector and 16 Velocities.
- Playback: Mono plays one slice at a time; Poly several; Through is mono but plays on through the rest of the region. Trigger/Gate work as in One-Shot, according to the Playback setting.
- Nudge moves the selected slice marker (
Shift for tiny steps; Zoom to look closely); Split Slice halves the selected slice. Hold Delete and tap a pad to remove its slice.
