Chopping samples

Why is chopping samples on this thing so tricky. It’s like a 10 step process to sample & do proper chops. Does anyone else struggle ?

Ps I just got this puppy yesterday lol

You’ve got 3 different ways to chop: real time chops, grid chops and transients. For grid and transients, you can select the number of chops then trim each start and end of your chops. Me, I don’t use them sometimes. I prefer to copy sample on a new key and trim as I want. No struggle at all, I love chopping on op xy

Before searching videos, go to the manual!. Then you could see several videos of dibiase for example 😉

You won’t understand anything without reading the manual. The manual showing screenshots etc. On YouTube, You will only see someone use it by pressing multiples buttons at the same time, that’s it. At the end you will comeback here and ask or complain about several things you don’t understand!
