How do I handle slicing my sample in DR. REX?

Slice Handling
Selecting Slices
A selected slice is indicated by being highlighted in the waveform display. To
select a slice, use one of the following methods:
By clicking in the waveform display.
If you hold down [Option] (Mac) or [Alt] (Windows) and click on a slice in
the waveform display, it will be played back.
By using the “Slice” knob below the waveform display.
Via MIDI.
If you activate “Select Slice Via MIDI”, you can select and “play” slices us-ing
your MIDI keyboard. Slices are always mapped to consecutive semi-tone
steps, with the first slice always being on the “C1” key.
If you play back a loop with “Select via MIDI” option activated, each
consecutive slice is selected as it is played back.
You can edit parameters during playback.
Editing Individual Slices
There are two basic methods you can use to edit individual slices in Reason:
In the Waveform display of the Dr.Rex device.
This is used for making playback settings for a slice.
In the Sequencer.
Here you can edit the notes that play the slices. There is a special REX
lane for editing REX slice notes, with the notes indicated by the slice
numbers instead of by pitches. Editing in the sequencer is described in
the Sequencer chapter.
Editing in the Waveform Display
Here you are able to edit several parameters for each slice, by first selecting
it, and then using the knobs below the waveform display. The following slice
parameters can be set:
! If you have made settings to any of the parameters listed above,
these will be lost if you load a new REX file. All Dr.Rex panel set-tings
are stored in the Song. You cannot directly apply panel set-tings
to another REX file!
| Parameter | Description
Pitch Allows you to transpose each individual slice in semi-tone
steps, over a range of more than eight octaves.
Pan The stereo position of each slice.
Level The volume of each slice. The default level is 100.
Decay Allows you to shorten individual slices.
