I rely on it heavily (and the only time I use it) is when I'm chopping samples on the trim screen. Just hold the shift button and move the slider. It's super convenient and hell of a lot better than turning the jog wheel. Especially if it's a long sample. :wink:

Yeah I do that for sure. Also I've used it to record filter changes. I'm just wondering how others have used it.

Yeah I was using for filter changes when I wrote the thread.
I don't think the trim via note variation slider function works on the non Xl?
That controlling decay on a ride cymbal sounds like a interesting idea, I think I'll try that out on hi-hats for a bit of variation.
Cheers.

I like to use it for pitch on some sort of drum/percussion sound, works nice at the end of a measure as a fill or transition.
