Sample Editing

You may need to edit your newly recorded samples using Sample Edit Mode.
To enter Sample Edit Mode, press Menu, and then tap Sample Edit to enter Sample Edit Mode. Alternatively,
press Sample Edit (MPC X, MPC One, MPC Key 61, MPC Key 37), or press Shift+Mute/Sample Edit (MPC Live II).
In Sample Edit Mode:
To switch between Trim Mode and Chop Mode, tap the Trim/Chop tab at the bottom of the screen. In this
example, use Trim Mode.
To set the sample's start point, use the first column of Q-Link knobs (when in the Screen Q-Link Edit Mode)
to adjust the start point with varying degrees of resolution. Alternatively, tap and drag the S marker in the
waveform. You can also double-tap the Start field and use the numeric keypad on the screen to enter a value (or
tap the Start field and use the numeric keypad).
To set the sample's end point, use the second column of Q-Link knobs (when in the Screen Q-Link Edit
Mode) to adjust the end point with varying degrees of resolution. Alternatively, tap and drag the E marker in the
waveform. You can also double-tap the Start field and use the numeric keypad on the screen to enter a value (or
tap the Start field and use the numeric keypad).
To hear your edits, press Pad 10 to play the sample from the start point to the end point.
