Introduction Quick Start

Sampling and editing in Sampling mode Creating multisample indexes and sampling – P0: Recording

Index zone (currently selected Index is reversed) Original Key (currently selected Original Key is displayed in red) Index01

Index02...Index08

Setup

C4 key Keyboard range

Immediately after the power is turned on, Position will be Right (to selected index), Zone Range will be 1 Keys, and Original Key Position will be Bottom, so that indexes will be created as shown below. This is convenient when you want to sample multiple takes of a phrase or rhythm loop in a single operation.

Sampling Sequencer Combination Program

By holding down the ENTER switch and playing a note, you can select the corresponding index, and the specified key will be the base key and will be shown in blue.

Creating multiple samples In the example procedure described above, several indexes were created (by pressing the Create button several times), and then samples were assigned to each “Index.” As an alternative method, it is also possible to create one index, sample into it, and then repeat these two steps. 1. Press the Create button once to create an index.

If you set Zone Range to 12 Keys, indexes will be created at intervals of one octave.

2. Record a sample. The recorded sample will automatically be assigned to the index you created in step 1. 3. Repeat steps 1 and 2.

5. Select “Index.”

Assigning samples to the pads

You can also select Index by holding down the ENTER switch and playing a pad or a note on the keyboard. For this example, select 001.

By default, pads 1–8 correspond to the C2–G2 keys.

7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 to assign a sample to each index. The number and order of the indexes in a multisample, the range of each index, and the original key position can be freely changed later if desired. (See “Multisample editing – P3: Multisample Edit” on page 119)

Media Effect

The assigned sample will sound when you play the keyboard in the range of the index to which the sample is assigned.

In Sampling mode, you can’t use velocity to vary the volume even if PAD MODE is set to VELOCITY SENSITIVE. For each pad, you can change the note numbers used to play samples.

KARMA

The sample you record will be automatically assigned to the index you selected in step 5.

These settings are made in the Sampling P4: Controllers– Pads 1–4 Setup, or Pads 5–8 Setup page. You could also assign the pads to pitch ranges that you are not likely to play. To make the setting, select the note number field, and play the desired key while holding down the ENTER switch.

Drum Track

If you want to record a new sample, you can sample it now.

Other

If RAM memory already contains samples, use Sample (Sample Select) to select the sample and assign it.

For example, the default “Index” setting for 001/008 sets OrigKey and Top Key to C2. The assigned sample will sound when you play the C2 key. The same sample will also sound when you strike pad 1. Similarly, if you assign samples to “Index” 002–008, the samples that sound when you play the C#2–G2 keys will also sound when you strike pads 2–8.

6. Assign a sample to the “Index.”

This is an efficient way to record multiple samples.
