Easy Sample Chop in real time

9Another huge upgrade from previous SP units is that the new 404 MKII now has the ability to chop your samples in real time with the help of the visual guide of the waveform on the screen. To enter Sample Chop mode, press Shift and Start/End under Sample Edit. To add new chops to your sample, simply play Pad 1 and as the sample plays, hit the pads when you want new sections. Then, push the encoder down to Assign the chops to whatever pads you’d like.
