Hey guys and gals,
First off I hope all is well. Secondly I am posting in this forum for some help since I'm having a bit of trouble figuring somethings out. So chopping has been very difficult for me. I have Dj'ed a long time on vinyl and can loop by ear well. The problem is when i go to chop samples and play them back on the main screen, the pads play back is not smooth. I have been reading and nothing gives a direct answer. I've tried editing the zones by ear, I watched this tutorial on how to "auto chop" by going into the 16 pad function and turning on the velocity and it still is sounding wonky. I feel like this might be the meat and potatoes of this machine and I am having a bit of trouble getting my samples to play properly. I also read you have to go into the decay and adjusting that to zero, plus messing around with the end margin. I've tried to find something in the manual but I think with all the information I'm trying to process I keep heading in circles and am quite confused. I just want to make sure my machine is not faulty, also bare with me I'm completely new to this machine and want to learn this instead of software.
Thanks in advanced!
