Sampling a mix of the phrases
generated by the KARMA
function together with an
external guitar sound
Here we’ll explain how to sample a performance
generated by the KARMA function along with the
sound of an external guitar.
In this example, we will sample a phrase generated by
the M3’s KARMA function in Program mode together
with the performance of a guitar connected to the
AUDIO INPUT jack.
Sampling can be performed in a similar way in
Combination and Sequencer modes as well as in
Program mode.
1. Press the MODE PROG switch to enter Program
mode, and select the drum program that you want
to resample.
2. Turn the KARMA function on (KARMA ON/OFF
switch lit), play the keyboard, and verify that the
drum phrase plays.
Turn LATCH on. Press the LATCH switch to make it
light.
Also adjust the tempo “ ” as desired.
3. Press the KARMA ON/OFF switch to turn off the
KARMA function.
4. Connect your guitar to the rear panel AUDIO
INPUT 1 jack.
Refer to step 4 of the procedure above. (See page 123)
5. Access the P0: Play– Sampling/Audio In page.
6. Uncheck “Use Global Setting.”
7. In this example, we’ll make settings manually
without using “Auto Sampling Setup.”
Since this sampling example is a combination of the
two preceding examples, we’ll need to make several
changes to the settings created by Auto Sampling
Setup
.
Make the following settings.
Audio Input
Use Global Setting
: Off
INPUT1
Bus Select
: L/R
Pan : as desired
Level : 127
AUX Bus : Off
The input from AUDIO INPUT 1 will be sent to the L/
R bus.
RECORDING LEVEL
Recording Level
: 0.0
This is the default setting for resampling.
Sampling Setup
Source Bus
: L/R
The sound sent to L/R bus will be sampled.
Trigger : Sampling START SW
Press the SAMPLING REC switch to enter record-
standby mode. Then press the SAMPLING START/
STOP switch to start sampling.
Metronome Precount : 4
There will be a four-beat countdown.
Save to : RAM
The sample will be recorded to RAM memory.
Mode : Stereo
The sound of the internal LR channels will be sampled
in stereo.
8. Adjust the volume of the guitar and the drum
phrase that you’ll be recording, and then sample
the sound.
Refer to steps 11–17 of the procedure above. (See
page 124)
9. Listen to the sound that was sampled.
If you’ve been following along with the earlier
examples, the convert-destination program bank and
number are still specified. Select that program and play
the C#2 note, and you’ll hear the sampled sound.
If you’re not using the Auto Sampling Setup Convert
to Program
option, audition the sound in Sampling
mode.
In the Sampling P0: Recording– Recording page, use
Sample (Sample Select)
to assign the sample. To
audition the sampled sound, play the key of the index
you assigned.
