lated according to the length from the start address to the
end address (if loop is off) or from the loop start address
to the end address (if loop is on). If you already know the
BPM value and the calculated value is incorrect, change
it to the correct value.
Use “New BPM” to specify the BPM value of the sample
you wish to create. “Ratio” will automatically be calcu-
lated from the “Source BPM” and “New BPM” values.
For example if you have a one-measure 120 BPM sample
in 4/4 time, and would like to change it to 150 BPM, you
would set “Beat” to 4. The “Source BPM” will be calcu-
lated automatically. If the “Source BPM” is not calculated
as 120 due to inaccuracies in the start address (or loop
start address) or end address, adjust “Source BPM” to
the correct value of 120.
Next, set “New BPM” to 150. The “Ratio” will be calcu-
lated automatically.
It is not possible to make settings that would cause
“Source BPM” or “New BPM” to exceed the range of
40–480.
It is not possible to make settings that would cause
“Ratio” to exceed the range of 50.00–200.00.
Depending on the sample, the length may not be
exactly as you specify, due to limitations in processing
accuracy.
7 To execute the Time Stretch operation, press the OK but-
ton. To cancel without executing, press the Cancel but-
ton.
When you press the OK button, the Time Stretch dialog
box will appear.
8 Audition the sample that was created by Time Stretch.
The sample before being time-stretched is assigned to the
C2 note of the keyboard, and the sample that was time-
stretched is assigned to C#2. You can change the “Index”
to check the waveform.
Keyboard & Index: This shows the multisample that is
used temporarily in this dialog box.
When you play the keyboard, this multisample will
sound. It will behave just as in normal pages (e.g., the
Recording page). (☞0–1a)
In the case of a stereo sample, a stereo multisam-
ple will be used temporarily. The sample at each index
will sound in stereo.
Index [Source, Result]:
Selects the index for the sample whose waveform you
wish to display.
If you select Source, the original waveform before time-
stretching will be selected.
If you select Result, the time-stretched sample will be
selected.
You can also select the index by holding down the
[Enter] key and pressing a note on the keyboard. The
index that includes that note will be selected.
Sample waveform display: This shows the waveform of
the selected sample. As in 2-1: Loop Edit, the Start, Loop
Start, and End addresses are shown by a solid line.
In the case of a stereo sample, the L channel sam-
ple data will be displayed above, and the R channel data
below.
ZOOM: This controls horizontal and vertical zoom in/
out for the waveform shown in the “sample waveform
display.” (☞1–1c)
Start:
End:
Specify the start address and end address of the sample
for the currently selected index.
When you execute Time Stretch, the addresses will be
specified automatically, but the playback may be slightly
skewed due to inaccuracies in the end address, etc. If this
occurs, you can correct the addresses manually.
When you change the start address, the loop start
address will also be changed simultaneously. If you
wish to independently adjust the start address and loop
start address, save the data in step
0, and then make
settings in the P2: Loop Edit page.
To audition the sound in the specified range, play the
keyboard or press the SAMPLING [START/STOP] key.
When you press the SAMPLING [START/STOP] key,
the sample in the range specified by “Start” and “End”
will sound at the original key.
Use Zero: (☞1–1c)
9 If you press the Stretch button, the Time Stretch dialog
box will appear, and you can re-do the time stretch once
again. Execute Time Stretch as described in step
6.
0 Save the sample that you created. Press the Save button,
and the Save dialog box will appear.
In “To Sample No.,” specify the save destination sample
number. By default, an unused sample number will be
selected. If “Overwrite” is checked, this cannot be
selected.
The sample number cannot be specified if “Overwrite” is
checked (☞p.101).
For stereo samples, use “Save to No.(L)” and
“(R)” to specify the save-destination of the L and R chan-
nels.
To execute the Save operation, press the OK button. To
cancel without saving press the Cancel button.
A By repeating steps 9–0 you can create more samples as
desired.
B Press the Exit button to exit the Time Stretch operation.
The index will specify the last-saved sample number.
If you wish to use the saved sample in Program mode
or Sequencer mode, you must either execute “Convert
MS to Program” (☞0–1G), or use Program mode “Mul-
tisample Select” (☞Program P1–2) to select the multi-
sample and create a program.
Be aware that if you exit Time Stretch without using the
Save button then press the OK button to save the sam-
ple, the sample(s) you created will be lost.
