Emax

assign the sample again to the next key you want and change the start and loop

if you truncate you are basically chucking the rest of the sample away

thats how its done on the sp1200 its the same loop say a 4 bar then 

then you fine tune it by by listening to were the sample is then moving the start to that position and then listening from there to the piont you want it to play to then you loop it to that position

dont truncate

as for slicing that did not come along until 1995 when propellar heads braught out recycle and it was not available to samplers untill the mpc4000 and the other samplers of that era 

the easiest way is use a sound editer and have the editor show the samples in samples then you will be able to see  axcactly were you need to set your points

but on the old machines it was done by trial and error and the listening ear

  Subject: [emax] Sample slice possible on Emax?


    
  So I took the weekend to to wrap my head around creating my own sample disks with the Emax. I got really far converting samples with EMXP as well as real time sampling with the direct in on the Emax, all easy enough and straight forward. But for my practical purposes I ran into a dead end when I wanted to separate a sample into "slices" after I recorded a loop from a vinyl record sped up to the max rate.

  Bottom line, I have a 4 bar loop recorded and turnicated exactly how I want it from start to stop. I want to take this four bar loop and turn it into four one bar loops on their key ranges. I tried to copy this four bar loop to four different key ranges but then after I turnicate one sample into a "slice" the other "copies" also turnicate the same way. Am I missing something or do I have to record the sample, turnicate to 1 bar loop, record again, turnicate the next loop... etc, etc?

  I've never used the SP1200 but it seems as if it's OS has a "slice" function built in as it's been a staple in sample based music. Am I missing something or does "slice" in some form or fashion not exist in the Emax? Any help or workflow suggestions appreciated!
