Chapter 2 Wave Editing
WAVE CHOP
This splits the wave currently selected into multiple waves (using sound level to define the split points). A single wave can be
chopped into a maximum of nine pieces. For example, a drum phrase can be divided into pieces of individual rhythm instruments
such as "bass drum," "snare" and "hi-hat."
Some phrases may not be successfully chopped, such as a phrase with many voices and a phrase containing sounds to be
reproduced simultaneously.
