Kit and/or master sample initialization
Through the context menu, you can initialize a sample kit in two ways;
Initialize a kit ("Init Kit")
"Init Kit" clears the master sample (audio) and clears all slices. Use this option if you wish to completely delete a kit. Note that any sample space occupied by the kit is not released until you leave the sampler. If you perform this operation to free up space first, then please leave and re-enter the sampler. This will kick-off the compaction and defragmentation process to reclaim the unused space.
Initialize master sample ("Init Mstr")
The "Init Mstr" sub-option restores the master sample audio as one single, big slice; any audio for this kit - whether allocated to a slice or not - will be restored into that one big slice. This option can be useful as an 'undo' function, for example if an auto-slice of a drum loop master sample did not yield satisfactory results.
Note that "Init Mstr" will not work for kits with mixed-format slices (for example 44.1KHz 8-bit mu-law recorded slices and 22.05KHz 16-bit recorded slices). Note also that - like all slices - there is a 11.8s length limit. If this comes into play the function will report 'Warn big'.

- Real-time pitch and time warping (under Sampler & vocoder)
The Woovebox' algorithm deliberately leans into this use of pitch shifting and time stretching for creative uses.
- Using the two sample banks (under Sampler & vocoder)
Use SM.bK/SMPL banK/14/A6 on a song's GLob page to switch between bank 1 and bank 2.
- Advanced modes and techniques (under Using samples and kits in your songs)
- Uploading new samples (under Wooveconnect 2)
Please note that just like using the sampler, any uploads or changes are committed only once you switch away from the sampler.
- Levels, VU Metering & monitoring (under Sampler & vocoder)
VU ("volume unit") metering is a useful tool to ensure the levels coming into the audio input are not too soft, nor too loud.
