Sampling in Sequencer mode
Sampling is still available in Sequencer mode - which
can be very convenient. The main areas of functionality
are summarized below. For details, please see
“Sampling in Program, Combination, and Sequencer
modes” on page 122.
• Multisample etc. you create can be played back in
Sequencer mode together with internal programs.
The Time Slice function of Sampling mode lets you
divide up a rhythm loop sample, and create
playback data that triggers the divided samples at
the appropriate timing. You can play back this
performance data in Sequencer mode, and adjust
the playback tempo without affecting the pitch of
the rhythm loop sample. You can even exchange
the note numbers of the performance data or
change its timing to transform the original rhythm
loop sample into a completely new rhythm loop.
For details, please see “Time Slice” on page 343 of
the Parameter Guide.
• The In-Track Sampling function lets you sample an
external audio source that’s playing along with the
song playback, and automatically create note data
in the track to play this sample at the correct time.
• You can resample your completed songs to WAVE
files, and create an audio CD by burning those
WAVE files in Media mode. For details, please see
“In-Track Sampling” on page 126.
Settings for sampling/resampling
The menu command Auto Sampling Setup lets you
automatically make the necessary settings for
sampling/resampling (e.g., In-Track Sampling) or for a
two-channel mix for creating an audio CD. For details,
please see “Tip: Auto Song Setup” on page 192 of the
Parameter Guide.
• Initialize: Set parameters related to sampling to
their default values.
• Resample SEQ Play: Make settings so that you can
resample your keyboard playing in Sequencer
mode.
• In-Track Sampling: Make settings to sample only
an external audio signal using the In-Track
Sampling function.
• 2ch Mix to Media: Make the appropriate settings
for resampling a completed song to create a stereo
two-channel WAVE file on an external USB storage
device (such as a hard disk). (After creating the
WAVE file, you can use the Media mode Make
Audio CD page to create an audio CD on an
external USB CD-R/RW drive.)
