[EXS] How are you selecting start stop points for samples

[EXS] How are you selecting start stop points for samples

2004-10-17 by Paul Stephenson

Hi all.

How are you guys selecting your stop start points on your samples?  I am
used to using Kontakt where I can visually see the sample and then fine
tune everything, but in EXS I only have numbers to choose from which is
kind of a pain.

Am I missing something or is there no GUI to help with this.

Thanks,

Paul

The EXS assumes that the samples have a correct starting point and the 
numbers are to alter the sound for playback. There is no visual 
finetuning.

If you want to tweak your own samples or duplicated (!) samples of 
existing instruments, open them in the instrument editor, select a zone 
and click on the small "E". That opens the sample editor.

Thanks Peter,

I hope Apple (Emagic) adds some visuals to help us here.  I know it can work the other way but nothing works like seeing it.  ☺
