A workspace where you can audition, inspect, clean up, and loop imported Samples.

Tip: If you decide to cancel all your Sample Editor window edits and revert to the previous version, there are two ways to do it:

  • If you're working in the Sample Editor window when you decide to revert, go to the File menu and select the Revert command.
  • If you've just closed your Sample Editor window and then decide to revert, then immediately click in the Session document window that contains the Sample you just edited, then go to the File menu and select the Undo command.

Notes:

  • Most of the Sample editing functions are only available when a range of the Sample's waveform is selected - see Making a Selection.
  • In the Sample Editor window, you're editing the Sample's uncompressed original version, not the compressed copy you made in the Compression dialog box. As soon as you exit the Sample Editor window, the Beatnik Editor will re-compress the revised Sample, using the same compression type you selected for that Sample.
