There are many way to cut the sample like using Protools, Logic, Adobe Soundbooth, Kontakt and many more. But before we start doing the editing we should plan or organize the sample otherwise it can easily mass up since the sample set is too big and too many key. It is advisable that name the file properly so later on we can easily import into Kontakt and using the auto map to map our sample and that will save a lot of time. To cut the sample, faster and easily way is to use the beat detective in protools and that will automatically fine the transient of the piano sample and then we just need to adjust a bit and name the region. Or cut the sample into set and import into Kontakt then use the wave editor. Within the wave editor there is a section call the Sync/Slice that allow you assign the sample directly into the mapping editor which is very fast. When we cut the sample it is necessary to cut where the sample starting point otherwise there will be delay and also need to be very careful with the zero crossing otherwise it will sound click or pop. If this does happen then we need to do the fade in and fade out in the wave editor. And also bear in mind that can do a lot of staff in wave editor such looping, slicing and many more which allow us to manipulate our sample in wave editor.
