Press DATA ENTRY knob D to bring up a list of samples.
Turn the knob counter-clockwise to scroll up the list, clockwise to scroll down the list. Tap the pad of the active
track while browsing to listen to the sample currently outlined.
Press [FUNCTION] and [YES/SAVE] to replace a sample in one of the slots with one found in any of the sample
directories. To learn more about sample directories, see “GLOBAL MENU” on page 48.
To select an outlined sample, press [YES/SAVE]. Press DATA ENTRY knob D or [NO/RELOAD] to exit the list
without selecting a sample.
• Sample selection may also be accessed by quickly pressing the second [PARAMETER] key, SAM-
PLE, twice.
EDITING THE FX
Select the FX track for editing by pressing the [FX] key. The FX track controls Analog Rytm internal send effects
(Delay and Reverb) and master effects (Distortion and Compression). Editing the FX track is similar to editing
the Sounds of the drum tracks. The PARAMETER pages contain all FX parameters.
There are five PARAMETER pages for the FX track. Access the PARAMETER pages by pressing one of the
[PARAMETER] keys. Use the DATA ENTRY knobs A-H to change the parameters. The first two, Delay and
Reverb, are send effects: their parameters are set on the FX track, but their incoming signals are set on the DEL
and REV send parameters on the AMP page of each individual drum track. The following two, Distortion and
Compressor, are master effects: they condition all sounds with distortion or compression. The last page is the
dedicated FX track LFO, with which you can temper any of the parameters on the FX track with a custom low
frequency oscillation along one of seven possible waveforms, enabling - to name but one example - tidal modu-
lation of sound distortion. For complete explanations of the parameters on the FX track, please see “Appendix
B: FX TRACK PARAMETERS“.
DELAY controls the character, reverb send and volume of the delay send effect.
REVERB controls the character and volume of the reverb send effect.
DISTORTION controls the amount and character of distortion applied.
COMPRESSOR controls the behavior, volume and dry/wet mix of sound compression.
LFO controls parameters for the FX track LFO.
• FX and track parameter settings are stored as part of a kit. Don’t forget to save the kit and give it a
unique name once you have achieved the results you want, or simply press [YES/SAVE] + [FX] to
quickly save the active kit with its name unchanged.
