The following diagram shows how, for a sample with
an original tempo of 100 BPM, the playback timing of
each segment will change at a song tempo of 120 BPM
or 80 BPM.

5

Strike the pad to hear the result.

If the playback of the sample is broken in an unnatural
way, go back to step 3 and try changing the number of
segments into which the sample is divided. However,
this may not improve the result if there is too great a
difference between the tempo of the sample and the
tempo of the current song.

6

Repeatedly press the [TRACK] key or hold
down the [TRACK] key and use the CUR-
SOR [

]/[

] keys to access the VIEW page

of the TRACK screen.

7

Play back the song, and press the pad for
which you turned the Slice function on.

The phrase of the sample assigned to the pad will play
in synchronization with the tempo of the current song.
If you have input data in the tempo map to change the
tempo during the song, the sample phrase will follow
the change. (For details on tempo map settings
