i recently purchased m6 and don't fully understand editing audio. i asked the question before and was explained to me i had to use a musampla to edit. i can't figure this out. i come from daws like traction 6 and mixcraft 7 , so i generally edit audio in their lanes. as an example, if i pulled out one of my loops from the browser, how do i load it into a sampler? and how would i edit this? i have watched every video i can find. also, is this more of a midi daw where most people don't use instruments to record?

Please elaborate on what you exactly want to do.

let's say i have a 10 second drum loop. i would like to be able to have the ability to split the loop, reverse a part, slow down a small part. etc. i know this is not possible to do dragging it into the sequencer, or composer veiw like a traditional daw. but how do i drag a loop, like the example given, into the sampler? then, where is the options to achieve this? i'm sorry i,m having a little difficulty with this. thanks.

Doesn't this video answer your question:

thank you. i did see that video. i assumed you had a way to edit audio in the wave form.i just have to learn this way.

If you start like in the video and enter the piano roll editor (0:42 in the video), righ click in the editor and select "Edit Sample".
There is your audio editor.
Edit your start and end markers, move/delete/create markers however you see necessary and finish the editing with a right click. Select "Update Sliced Sample Part"

You can, as well, drag a sample into a Musampla, double click on the wave to enter the audio editor, create markers as required and finish things with "Creat Sliced Sample Part".
To reverse a slice, in that newly created MultiSampla, locate your slice and use the current end marker number for start and the start marker for the end. Done.

i watched and understood the video, but my question is what do i do if i am importing an audio file from my loop library? i can't click open sample loop. i have to open my loop in load audio file. how do i load this file into a mu multisampla?

First of all lets distinguish the difference between audio streams and samples, pls see:
http://www.mutools.com/info/docs/common ... mples.html

So if you import an audio file and stream it from the composer (you see the audio waveform) then this cannot be used into the (multi-)sampler. You can (also) load that audio as a sample and then you can use it in the (multi)-sampler.

For more info on the multi-sample editor, see:
http://www.mutools.com/info/docs/mux/mu ... ditor.html

Hope this helps.

thank you. so, mulab doesn't edit audio in the more traditional ways as, say cubase, or sonar? if that is the case, is there a chance this will be implemented in a future release? i love your daw because it forces me to be creative in a different way, but being primarily a guitar player, it is immensely easier to edit audio on the timeline itself.

Yes you can split, move, copy audio parts around in the composer. Give it a try. Yes audio part handling can be further improved, that's indeed on the wishlist.

is reverse an audio part possible on the composer?

MuTools · Post by **MuTools** » Sat Oct 03, 2015 8:27 pm

Not yet.
