Auto Chop
How Auto Chop Works
You can Auto Chop a new sample, an already-existing audio phrase, or an
unused sample from the project SAMPLE folder.
Auto Chop analyzes a sample, looking for places it can slice its sounds into
separate samples, placing a “chop point” marker at each of these locations.
If you like the chop points Auto Chop finds, it slices up the sample for you. If
you don’t, you can change your Auto Chop settings and have it try again.
For the pictures in this booklet, we’re working in a new, blank
project—things may look a little different in your project.
