The Chopping Up Samples

To chop up a sample you need either a high quality drum machine/music production sampler, a workstation or a computer. What is done is a marker or placement is put at the start and end points of the selected audio and then that portion of audio is cut out as a standalone sound. Advanced users may then cut many samples from this sample selection of audio and put the bits of audio together in creative ways, compare it to an audio jigsaw puzzle that when put completely together is artistically pleasing.
