I'm trying to edit the start and end points on 4 samples equally, at the same time.

Is there a way to link all four samples in a keygroup or a drum program so that when I adjust the start / end points one one it affects all 4 samples?

I've tried a few things but still no luck.

Help?

Thanks in advance.

The teardrop at the top of screens connects some env actions to multiple pads at the same time but I don’t think it can do the same for start/end of samples.

Thanks for the response.

I thought maybe there was something I overlooked but it seems you may be right.
The (select multiple) teardrop seems to just affect the envelopes.

Oh well, for now I guess I gotta just edit one and then manually copy over the values.

Thanks again.

Has anyone anything further on this? I’ve copied a bunch of layers to different pads for FX routing and I’d like to manually adjust start and end points on all of them - I thought it was working with the ALL button activated in program edit but it’s not working…

When using that ALL option I remember the default envelopes will do what you expect. I haven’t seen/noticed that ALL works with waveform/slice start and end points where all slices react.
