If the display indicates “ADC OVERLOAD !” (AD
converter input overload), turn the rear panel
[LEVEL] knob toward MIN to adjust the level

The best audio quality will be obtained at the
highest possible level that does not cause an
overload; i.e., a level that is slightly below the point
where “ADC OVERLOAD !” is displayed.

Play your guitar, and the level meter will indicate
the volume at which the guitar will be sampled.
Press the KARMA ON/OFF switch to turn it on,
play the keyboard to start the drum phrase, and

If the “CLIP!” indication appears, use the VALUE
controller to lower the Recording Level slider
(located in the right side of the display) below +0.0
to an appropriate level.
If the balance between instruments is not to your
liking, use the LEVEL knob or the performance
editor “Amp Level” to adjust the balance.
8. When you have finished making adjustments,
press the SAMPLING REC switch.
Press the KARMA ON/OFF switch to turn off the
KARMA function.
9. Press the KARMA ON/OFF switch to turn it on,
and then press the SAMPLING REC switch to
enter record-ready mode.
When you press the SAMPLING START/STOP
switch, a count-down will begin. Play the keyboard
during the count-down.
After a four-beat count-down, recording will start.
Play your guitar. The KARMA function will also
start after the count-down.
10.Press the SAMPLING START/STOP switch to stop
recording.
11.Press the KARMA ON/OFF switch to turn it off.
12.Listen to the sound that was sampled.
Access the Sampling P0: Recording– Recording
page. Press the MODE SAMPLING switch, then the
EXIT switch, and then the Recording tab in the
upper line of the LCD screen.
Use “Multisample Select” to select the multisample
that you resampled.
Play the C2 key, and you will hear the sound that
was resampled.
13.If you want to convert this multisample into a
program, choose the “Convert MS To Program”
page menu command, select the desired program,
and execute. (See “Converting a multisample to a
program” on page 140)
Sampling a guitar from the audio inputs,
while listening to a KARMA-generated
drum phrase
Here we’ll explain how you can sample just the sound
of an external input source while listening to a
performance generated by the KARMA function.
You can do this by modifying the settings in step 5 of
the preceding “Mixing a KARMA-generated drum
phrase …” to change them as follows.
INPUT1
Bus Select (IFX/Indiv.): Off
REC Bus: 1
The input from AUDIO INPUT 1 will be sent to REC
bus 1.
– Sampling Setup –
Source Bus: REC 1/2
The sound sent to REC bus 1/2 will be sampled.
The sound of the internal tone generator sent to the
L/R bus will not be sampled.
Mode: L–Mono
The sound of the internal L channel will be sampled
in monaural.
Modify the settings as shown above, sample your
playing, and then listen to the sample.
Examples of sampling in Sequencer mode
In-Track Sampling
When you sample an external audio source while
listening to the song playback, the In-Track Sampling
function automatically creates the appropriate note
data in a track.
When you play back the song, the automatically-
created note data will trigger the multisample that was
automatically converted to a program.
In this example, we’ll show the sound of a guitar
connected to the AUDIO INPUT 1 jack can be added to
your song.
1. In Sequencer mode, select the song to which you
want to add the guitar sound.
You can either create a song, or use Disk mode to
load a previously-created song.
2. Connect your guitar to the rear panel AUDIO
INPUT 1 jack.
Press the AUDIO INPUT MIC/LINE switch inward
to select the LINE position, and set the LEVEL knob
at about the center.
If you connect a guitar with passive pickups (i.e., a
guitar that does not contain a preamp), you will be
unable to sample it at the correct level because of
the impedance mismatch. Such guitars should be
routed through a preamp or an effect unit.
3. Access the Sequencer P0: Play/REC– Audio
Input/Sampling page.
