you’re correct, but in a newer firmware released since that tutorial was filmed, there are interchangeable modes for this and that in LIVE mode.
@alanza was referring to sample.this, where a trigger or gate will instantly reset playback to previous cue point (similar to how it works in the dedicated CUE mode).
if you haven’t seen this page about the v1.2 firmware yet, it’s well worth a read. this firmware expands what W/ can do in many super cool ways!
