The Root control enables you to set the unity note of the loaded sample. If,
for example, you set Center to C2 and play a C3 the sample will be played

one octave above its original frequency. In the case of the Wavetable
Generator, to obtain clean wavetables it's essential that the sample's root

note is set to the same note as the one at which the sample was initially
recorded. Otherwise the Generator will produce more or less rough, harsh

sounds.

Loop Sampler Generator

The CrX4's Loop Sampler Generator is ideally suited to looping samples in

a creative way. The user interface for this Generator is divided into two
parts: the Settings in the generator area and an additional Waveform

window in the lower part of the GUI, which can be opened with the Display
Switch in the Settings.

The Settings in the Generator

window contains the following
controls:

The Sample Filename shows

which sample is currently loaded
(in the active sample slot).

Right below the filename, on the
left is a number which has small

arrows left and right of it. Usually

you will see number 0 here, indicating you work with the first sample slot.

The Loop Sampler however allows to work with many samples, though this
is not the common way of using it. To work with more than one sample you

can here switch through 64 individual sample slots (indexed 0 to 63).

The Load button (folder symbol) opens a dialog that lets you select a file for
loading. The Previous and Next buttons allow you to traverse a list of

samples. Once loaded, the sample’s name is displayed to the right of the
Next button. The Clear button (X symbol) is used to remove a sample from

the Generator.

Below the file controls you find on the left the Start parameter (allowing to
start the sample from a certain point instead of from the beginning) and the

Loop-Points (Start and End), allowing you to define a part of the sample
