7. Press the Recording tab, and in the REC Sample Setup field, select and set the Sample Mode: to
Stereo.
8. Press the REC/WRITE key to "arm" the sampler.
9. Start playback on your audio source device, and watch the Recording Level indicators in TRITON's
display - if "ADC OVERLOAD" flashes above the indicators, lower the rear panel LEVEL control until
"ADC OVERLOAD" no longer flashes. If "CLIP!" flashes above the indicators, press the Recording
Level "fader", and lower the level until "CLIP!" no longer flashes.
10. Stop playback on your audio source device.
11. Press TRITON's START/STOP key, then start playback on your audio source device. When you have
sampled the desired length of the source material (1 or 2 bars should be plenty), press TRITON's
START/STOP key again - to stop sampling, then stop playback on your audio source device.
12. Play the TRITON's C2 (Low-C) key to playback the new sample - it will loop automatically - don't worry,
we'll fix the loop shortly! For now, notice the MS: 000: New MS___000 -L at the top of the display -
because you set the Sample Mode to Stereo, TRITON automatically created a stereo multi-sample with
two individual samples in the New Sample field. The "beauty" of this lies in the fact that, when you
convert this multi-sample to a Program, the L / R samples will "find their way" instantly - to oscillators 1
and 2! Cool, huh? Leave these values set as they are for now…
Work with the Sample Edit page:
13. Press the MENU key, then press P1: Sample Edit. Because this is a stereo sample, the waveform
display you see is split horizontally, allowing you to view both the left and right samples at the same time.
14. Press to highlight the Edit Range End: 0000000 parameter, and rotate the DIAL clockwise. You'll see
the entire waveform display being highlighted as you go - when you reach the actual sample end point
and can't rotate the DIAL anymore, press the START/STOP key. You'll hear the sample play back from
start to end, and then stop.
15. Now press the ZOOM 55 66 buttons to zoom - in and out on the sample level (vertical), then press the
ZOOM 33 44 buttons to zoom - in and out on the sample addresses (horizontal). This let's you view a
sample up - close and personal! Plus, it really helps when you need to work with specific areas of the
sample data!
Tip: There's much more to learn about the Sample Edit page functions, including a host of Page command
edits like Truncate, Cut, Clear, Copy, Insert, Mix, Paste, Normalize, Rate Convert , Reverse and more…
