sampled
Took a taste
Sampled is the past tense of sample—to take a small portion of something larger to evaluate, test, or experience: We sampled the wine before ordering a bottle.
In music production, sampled means incorporating a portion of an existing recording into a new track: The beat sampled a classic funk record.
In statistics, sampled populations have been selected for study.
