Elektron Musical Instruments

Well, I only chop samples from the start of tracks recorded from 
external gear.  Open up the sample editor, change the ruler to 
samples and cut away.  You can also move the "sample start" marker.
Of course this may be completly unneccessary if you can't hear the 
offset.
I use a mixture of VSTis and hardware and of course VSTis are always 
sample accurate.  That has got to be the coolest feature of the 
Virus TI: hardware with soft-synth sample accuracy.
