Beat Slice - “Loop options"

[gravedraq]

What is the problem?

A Slice is only being played to the end, and if you want to hear it again, then you need to re-trigger the slice.

What should this feature achieve?

The ability to combine slices with a loop mode, example forward, backward or ping-pong. The loop-playback will then only be initiated within the start and end point of the slice.

Are there any workarounds?

• Manually trigger the slice point.
• Copy the whole sample to a new instrument, crop start and end, so you have the loop part and followed by using the normal loop play-back options.

Additionally thoughts / ideas?

• Imagine the ability to set different “loop-playback” options on the different slices within one loop.
• How would this idea work? Beat Slice - "Hot Slice" option < Should it loop and ping from the start point of the slice to the end of the loop?

For completeness sake i’m also posting this wish (which is another playback option for beat slice mode):

Beat Slice mode allowing to play through to end of sample

We need a mode where slices play from their respective marker “through” to the end of the sample (or as far as it can whilst the note is on) instead of stopping when it reaches the next marker. What is the problem? Currently when a sample is sliced, each slice plays from that slice’s marker and stops when it hits the marker of the next slice. What do you want to achieve? A new Beat Slice mode where slices would play from their respective marker “through” to the end of the sample (or until an O…

All these options would make beat slice a creative powerhouse in my opinion.

Thank you for another well defined wish!
