The problem with TRIM is that you can't edit the sample according to Bars/steps. So you can't make perfect samples that will loop in sync with the tempo.
There is a mathematical equation that you can use to work out the samples per second (44000), then work out how many seconds in a bar.
This would just kill the flow.

Lemme explain why I want that extract to sample feature.
I record into audio tracks, e.g. playing some riffs over some beat or metronome, for ... 16 bars. Then I find the best bar or few bars... now, if I go into trim and edit the few bars as precise as I can, I could get a sample that would loop in sync to the BPM
(i.e. the beat I played the riffs over) but only in the beginning, if the sample will play in a loop for more than a few bars it will start to get out of sync, that's why a precise way to trim/extract a sample according to bar/steps length is needed.
I did find a way to get exact samples, but only bar length size (no steps):
1) Record the riffs into an audio track e.g. 8 bars
2) I like how the Take sounds starting at bar 4 and ending bar 6 =
2 bars3) Go into trim mode, adjust the beginning of the Take from where I want it to start. This way the audio track will start playing the Take right where I want it to.
4) Now create another audio track, set input to MAIN OUT
5) Set the sequence length to
2 bars and to loop
6) Record into the new audio track. It will record exactly 2 bars and stop. You get a new sample that's exactly 2 bars long (at current BPM)
this is time consuming, but this is the only way I know how to do it.
p.s. it gets more complicated when I use odd time signatures.
p.s.s. sorry for starting a discussion on this in this topic.
if need be we could continue here:

an option in TRIM MODE to edit samples in bars/steps.
