So I'm back again with another basic question. For insight, I'm from 4000/2000/ XL school though I do have a Studio Black that I just don't understand.

Anyway, how can I simply slow/ speed a sample to match sequence tempo and loop around? No chopping, warping, stretching, just a simple match.

The old school way would be to go to pad parameters and just change the tuning until it's looping glitch free. How do I do this on a Live II?

Hell, when I go to sample edit, the from bpm doesn't match the sequence nor any mathematical division of it. Please help an old dog learn a new trick.

I feel your pain (fm 2kxl/4k).

Dig into pad tuning everywhere you see it, there is not just one place for many things.
