1–2: OSC Basic
The multisample(s) (waveform) or drum kit on which the
program will be based can be selected here for oscillator 1
and/or oscillator 2.
Internal ROM contains 429 (425: ROM + 4: Piano) different
multisamples (preset multisamples) and 153 drum kits. By
selecting a RAM multisample, you can use a multisample
that you created in Sampling mode or that you loaded in
Disk mode. If any of the EXB-PCM series options have been
installed, you will be able to select from among their multi-
samples as well. The following illustration shows a LCD
screen where “Oscillator Mode” (1–1a) has been set to Dou-
ble. If this is set to Single, the OSC2 Multisample (1–2b) will
not appear and cannot be set.
The following illustration shows the display when “Oscilla-
tor Mode” (1–1a) has been set to Drums.
1–2a: OSC1 Multisample
Here you can select a multisample.
You can select different multisamples for High and Low, and
use velocity to switch between the two multisamples. Start
Offset, Reverse, and Level can be adjusted independently
for the High and Low multisamples.
High:
High MS Bank [ROM, RAM, Piano, EXB*...]
High Multisample
[000...424, 000...999, 000...003, 000...]
Specifies the bank and multisample number of the High
multisample. The multisample you select here will sounded
by velocities greater than the value of the “Velocity M.Sam-
ple SW Lo→Hi” (1–2c) parameter “OSC1.” If you do not
wish to use velocity switching, set “OSC1” to a value of 001,
and select only the High multisample.
ROM: Selects a preset multisample. Use “High Multisam-
ple” to select from 000–424.
RAM: Selects a multisample that you created in Sampling
mode or that you loaded in Disk mode. Use “High Multi-
sample” to select from 000–999.
Piano: You can select preset multisamples such as stereo
piano. Choose from 000–003 for the “High Multisample.”
EXB*: Multisamples from EXB-PCM series option boards
can be selected. “*” will indicate the type of installed option.
The multisample number for “High Multisample” will
depend on which EXB-PCM options have been installed.
The EXB* display will differ depending on the type of
option board.
If a program that uses a multisample from an EXB-PCM
series board is selected, but the corresponding EXB-
PCM (expansion board) is not installed, the “High MS
Bank” field will indicate ROM. In this case, the pro-
gram will not sound. By re-selecting the multisample
bank, you can make the program sound.
Each multisample has an upper limit, and may not pro-
duce sound when played above that limit.
When you press the “High Multisample” popup button, a
multisample list will appear, allowing you to select a multi-
sample from the list.
If ROM is selected as the “High MS Bank,” you can select a
multisample from a tabbed list organized by type of instru-
ment.
Category/ROM Multisample Select menu:
S.Offset (High Start Offset) [Off, On]
This specifies the point at which the multisample will begin
sounding. For some multisamples this parameter will have
no effect.
On (checked): The sound will start from the start offset loca-
tion that is pre-determined for each multisample.
However when a RAM bank is selected, this will depend on
the selected multisample. If you select a multisample that
includes one of the following types of sample, checking this
item will cause playback to start from the Loop Start Address.
• A sample that was recorded (sampled) in Sampling
mode
• A sample whose Loop Start Address was edited in
Sampling mode after the sample was loaded in Disk
mode
• A sample whose Loop Start Address was specified
automatically when it was loaded as an AKAI, AIFF, or
WAVE file in Disk mode
Off (unchecked): The sound will start from the beginning of
the multisample waveform.
Rev (High Reverse) [Off, On]
The multisample will be played in reverse. In the case of
ROM or optional (EXB-PCM series) multisamples that were
originally specified to loop, or in the case of multisamples
that were set to loop in Sampling mode, the multisample
will be played back in “one-shot” reverse mode. If the multi-
sample was originally set to reverse, it will playback with-
out change.
On (checked): The multisample will playback in reverse.
Off (unchecked): The multisample will playback normally.
