	A zone can be selected by left-clicking on it or by selecting a sample from the [[Sampler#Sample List\|Sample List]].

You can resize the range of an active zone by click-dragging one of its edges. Click-dragging inside the zone will move it around.

	If you hold down ''"Left Shift"'' and left-click on another zone, both this and the active zone are selected, along with any zones between them on the grid. You can also left-click (anywhere except the active zone) and drag to select a range of zones.

	The interface consists of a large central grid that displays the Keyzones, with various options above and below. The grid's note range of C-0 to B-9 is represented horizontally, while the velocity range of 00 to 80 is shown vertically. When a key is pressed, either with the computer keyboard or via a MIDI controller, its note and velocity values are translated into a coordinate on the Keyzone grid. If this co-ordinate is within a Keyzone's range then it will be activated and its sample is usually played (the [[#Keyzone Options\|Overlap mode]] can change this). If the coordinate falls in empty space then nothing happens.		The interface consists of a large central grid that displays the Keyzones, with various options above and below.

	With a [[Waveform#Slice Markers\|sliced sample]] your options are far more limited: the Note-Off layer is unavailable, zones cannot be adjusted by velocity and (aside from the initial sample) can only be a single ~~key~~ in width. However, the ''"KEY->Pitch"'', ''"VEL->VOL"'' and ''"Drumkit"'' options are still available.
