Is there a way to slice a sample in stereo intervals?

Is there a way to apply the same slice marker at different points on the timeline for L and R channels?

I’m trying to cut up some drums which have about a 150th of a second delay in the right channel that I want to preserve. Is it possible to place slice marker 2 at say 00.00.290 for the right channel and at 00.00.315 for the left?

If this isnt possible, anyone have any advice as to how i could get this effect?

Thanks in advance !! :grin:

two ideas:

  1. insert silence in one channel to compensate
  2. remove silence or audio until both channels match

or just make two mono samples from one stereo file, slice however you want… either in one instrument (to benefit from phrases) or two. :slight_smile:

This doesn’t make sense. Because you’d get phasing issues in 99% of all cases. And i bet the drums are stereo because they’re already processed with pannings and FX like reverb, delay etc which also may add such time shifts on one of the both stereo channels. Use dry mono drums for best quality and process them yourself by panning them to left/right, adding FX etc. So you’ll get your own processed stereo drums. Look at all the pro drum & bass/jungle artists. They all slice up mono drum (break) samples and process them themselves.
