Editing samples
By editing samples, we mean here the adjustment of
the start and end points of the sample.
When the SAMPLER 1 or SAMPLER 2 selection
control is turned to EDIT , the sample can be edited (if
both are left in the EDIT position, only sampler 1 can
be edited).
Use the left DATA knob to adjust the start point of the
sample (of course you can only adjust it forward
from the original
IN point).
Use the right DATA knob to adjust the end point of
the sampler (of course, you can only adjust the posi-
tion backward from the original
OUT point).
Naturally, the end point of the sample must come
after the start point.
TIP
Don’t forget to turn the sampler selection control away
from the
EDIT position when you’ve finished editing.
NOTE
When you are editing samples, you cannot turn the
effect on or off.
Erasing samples
When a sample has been recorded, (both the IN and
OUT keys are lit), you can erase the contents of the
sample.
Press the IN and OUT keys together to erase the con-
tents of the sampler.
Sample pitch
The sampler pitch and tempo can be altered by
±100% using the menu system (
17St ).
See (“Sampler tempo” on page 19) for details.
