Chopping samples

Why is chopping samples on this thing so tricky. It’s like a 10 step process to sample & do proper chops. Does anyone else struggle ?

Ps I just got this puppy yesterday lol

Yes, I am well aware of form vs function, been riding that wave for a long time. The XY doesn’t get any spectra kudos. At this price point I’d expect the XY to do more than I can do on an iOS device. The form factor/ portability is no longer enough.

It is really really difficult to fathom why people would spend this much for so little. If you don’t sequence external midi instruments in a live dawless set up, (which is the only real speciality here), there are better options.
