A DRIVE
Move the cursor to this area and rotate the
[DATA/JOG] dial to select the internal or exter-
nal CD-RW drive.
B ASSIGN TO
Select the pad to which you wish to assign CD-
DA data. Pads to which no sample has been
assigned will be displayed as “-NO ASN-”.
C TRACK/TOTAL
This is the track list of the audio CD/mixed-
mode CD-ROM inserted in the CD-RW drive.
Move the cursor to this list, and rotate the
[DATA/JOG] dial to select a track. The value at
the right shows the total time of that track.
D EXTRACT POINT
Select the area of the track specified in 3 that
will be assigned to the pad, in units of “min-
utes:seconds:frames (1/75 seconds).”
Move the cursor to this area and use the [DATA/
JOG] dial to specify the START (start point) and
END (end point).
Tip!
Later, you can trim the sample assigned to the
pad to make even finer adjustments. Samples
can be trimmed in the SAMP. PAD screen
PAD Edit page (→ P.86).
E EXECUTE button
This button executes the sample import opera-
tion.
CD-DA data can be imported only for songs
whose sampling frequency is 44.1 kHz.
Execution of this operation requires a longer
time than the actual time length of the data.
Also, processing cannot be cancelled once
the operation has been executed.
