Is this the best way to chop a loop on the 2kClassic? I DO know the velocity to SampleStart method, but it NEVER works out the way I need it to.
Forget about the velocity start value trick, it sucks! If you try to turn your track velocity from say 100 to 99 there goes all your work.
If you want to chop a number of sounds from one sample just set the zone for your first chop, edit->new sample. To save time use easy to type names, if my sound is called BREAK0001.snd I usually call the first chop BREAKA001, and the second BREAKB001 etc. by cursoring right and hitting a pad to add the letter. for your next chop, simply highlight the start field and type the numerical value (# buttons) from the end field (end of your first zone), cursor over to end and use the data/digit wheels. You can get pretty fast this way, equal to or faster than a mouse and software if you practice.
