There is currently no sample slicing feature available on Play. A drum loop for example will play through the whole sample length when triggered by an active step
What do you want to achieve?
A sample slice mode, which allows a user to slice up a sample and assign slice’s to the Play’s steps
Are there any workarounds?
You can edit the start/end time of a sample, but this is a complete inefficient and laborious task to edit the start/end time of every step the loop is used on.

Great Idea. Would be even better if you can make slice-grids with a parameter to set the number of grid slices and bar length of the sample. Maybe the slices can be laid out like the newer melodic sequencer where each be spread across the grid keys where each vertical grid row is a slice and the whole grid can be scrolled up or down. Basically the UX could be done this way. Maybe also a folder could be made for the grid slice where the user can use the slices as a pack on the project. With this I think it would be good to be able to save that to reuse in other projects. Just riffing here…
Going to skip voting on this one, as its a no brainer, an absolute a must have …
Id rather have this over being the the first nation to land on the lunar south pole (If I was Indian) … apologies for the word analogy but I’m serious about the brilliance of instruments
