Hi-Sens (Hi-Sensitivity SmartSlice)

This is the third SmartSlice algorithm, which is a version of the
Enhanced technique, optimized for ‘busier’ loops with lots of
transients close together.

•

Equal-16

s (No SmartSlice, loop split into 16 equal slices)

With this algorithm, the SmartSlice process is avoided, and
the loop is sliced into 16 equal segments.

Using Auto mode

With Auto mode enabled, GURU will preview the selected loop
in context, depending on the state of the Score button:

• The SmartSlice… message will appear momentarily while
the loop is analysed and sliced. After this message disap-
pears, you can click the to display the slices detected in the
loop.

• If it is set to ‘Audio’ only the Pads will be heard in context,
played by the current Pattern (you won’t hear anything unless
there are some Pattern events present!). The Pads, the

button and the

buttons will begin to ﬂash.

• With the button set to ‘Score’, only the Pattern will be ex-
tracted, and previewed using the currently-loaded Pad sounds.
The current Pattern, the

button and the

buttons will

begin to ﬂash.

• With the button set to ‘Both’, you’ll hear the new loop’s
sounds being played by the Pattern extracted from it. The
Pads, the current Pattern, the

button and the

but-

tons will begin to ﬂash.

You can then do one of the following:

• Click

in order to load the loop.

• Click another loop in the Browser to preview or use the

buttons to browse through the loops in a folder.

• Click the the

button – the previewing will stop and the

contents of the Pads and/or the Pattern will not be changed.
