Hi Diki,
I gather you're refferring to the Korg??
It doesn't mention Time Stretching as such.
I don't even know what it actually means.
I've only been doing some minor experimentation with the groove files, ie I've put together some brush swish pads. I'll have to check & see if there is a gap if used at a slower tempo.

There is a note in the manual that says
"Gaps between sliced samples, when slowing down the tempo, can be automatically filled by the Extend function , smoothing out each sample's tail".
I've still got a lot to learn, but the difference in perceived sound between hearing midi drums play jazz brush swishes & hearing an audio loop play something similiar, will I beleive , make it worth the effort of digging in deeper.

Not enough hours in the day, between wanting to get stuck into figuring out guitar mode, & learning about the audio grooves.

best wishes
Rikki

[B]What happens to the audio if you play the loop SLOWER than it was recorded at? Are there 'gaps' between the audio, as the slices get moved apart, or does the engine time-stretch them?
