●
You can listen to the sample playback as you adjust the start and end points. This
makes it easy to set the points to appropriate locations.
●
When making adjustments, you can switch freely among samples simply by press-
ing the appropriate bank selectors and pads. This makes it easy to set up start and
end points for all of your samples during a single job session.
●
It is not possible to set the end point lower than the start point.
●
This operation can be used only on nonempty sample tracks. You cannot select the
AUDIO IN or MASTER track (since these tracks never contain samples).
●
The start and end points are saved together with the sample waveform when you
save the sample to a volume on disk.
●
For LOOP tracks only: You can use the SOUND/[LENGTH] knob function (
→
p.200) to adjust the applied end point dynamically during playback (provided that
the track’s BPM TRACKING is set to SLICE). But this adjustment is temporary and
has no effect on the end-point setting that you make with the SAMPLE | END
POINT job.
Procedure
Be sure that you have selected the song containing the sample(s) you want to work on.
1. Press SAMPLE | START POINT or SAMPLE | END POINT.
▼ The track brackets indicate the currently selected sample track. If the track is empty,
the screen displays the NO SAMPLE message. If the track contains a sample, the
screen shows the eight-digit start-point or end-point value: START = xxxxxxxx or
END= xxxxxxxx.
2. If necessary, change the track selection by pressing the appropriate bank selector
and/or pad.
Remember that you can listen to the sound of the sample simply by hitting the pad.
As you make the following adjustments, you should repeatedly hit the pad to monitor
how the adjustments are affecting the sound.
