Deleting a sample
(DELETE SAMPLE)
This function completely deletes a sample from memory.
1. Use the dial to select the sample that you wish to Delete.
2. Hold down the Shift key and press step key 14 (DELETE
SAMPLE). (Key 14 will blink.)
3. Press step key 14 once again to delete the sample. (Key 14 will
go dark.)
If you decide to cancel without deleting, press the Stop/Cancel

Once a sample has been deleted, it cannot be recovered.

Checking the remaining
amount of sampling area
(MEMORY)
Use the cursor keys to make the parameter select LED indicate
MEMORY.
The display will indicate the remaining number of seconds of sam-
pling time.
It is not possible to edit the Memory parameter.
Since stereo sampling uses twice as much memory, the avail-
able amount of sampling time will be half the amount that is
displayed.
Saving a sample (WRITE)
After you record or modify a sample, you must perform the Write
operation if you wish to keep the data. If you wish to intentionally
discard the changes you have made to a sample and revert to the
original data, simply change samples without saving.
1. Press the WRITE key (the key will blink). The sample number
will blink in the display. In the case of a newly recorded sample,
the display will blink “- -.” (or “- -.S” for a stereo sample).
2. Use the dial to select the writing destination sample number. In
the case of a monaural sample (including slice samples), you
can choose from “00.” through “99.” In the case of a stereo
sample, you can choose from “00.S” through “49.S.” When you
choose the unused sample number, a period is indicated on the
lower right side of display.
3. Press the WRITE key once again, and the
display will indicate that the data is being
saved. When saving is complete, the display
will change to the save destination number
and the WRITE key will go dark.
If you decide to cancel without writing, press the Stop/Cancel
key.

With the factory settings, Memory Protect is turned on so
that data cannot be saved. You must turn off Memory Protect
before you execute the Write operation. (p.56 “Memory Pro-
tect (Protect)”)
When you execute the Write operation, the sample that had
occupied the save destination will be overwritten.
The data locations within internal memory are optimized
when you write a sample, and this may take a certain amount
of time (maximum of approximately 90 seconds). During this
time, the display will show that the data is currently being
saved.
The animation is indicated on the display during writing the
sample. Never turn off the power until the data has been
completely saved (i.e., until the Write key goes dark).
There is no need to write a sliced sample to a different loca-
tion. The same location can play back the original sample (if
assigned to part 1—7B) or the sliced sample (if assigned to
slice part).
