Parameters
[F1 (Sampling)]
Sample a sound from an external input source.
* Operating the velocity pads or D Beam con-
trollers will not play the internal sound gen-
erator.
[F2 (Re-Sampling)] Resample the sound of the internal sound gen-
erator.
* The sound of the external input will not be
heard.
[F3 (Mix)]
(Mix sampling)
Sample the combined sounds of the internal
sound generator and an external input source.
[F4 (Auto Divide)]
(Auto divide sam-
pling)
Sample an extended source, and automatically
divide it into several samples at silent regions.
* Operating the velocity pads or D Beam con-
trollers will not play the internal sound gen-
erator.
[F5 (Solo)]
(Solo sampling)
While playing the internal sound generator as
usual, sample only the sound from the external
input.
* Effects cannot be applied to the external in-
put sound.
[F6 (Cancel)] Return to the previous screen.
[F1 (Input Setting)]
Make settings for the external input (p. 34).
[F2 (Auto Trig)]
(Auto Trigger)
If this is on, sampling will begin automati-
cally when the input sound is detected.
[F3 (Trim Sw)] If this is turned on, the Start point and End
point settings (p. 115) will be automatically
adjusted after sampling is performed, so
any silent portions at the beginning or end
of the sampled sound are excluded.
[F4 (BPM/Click)] Set the tempo, and turn the metronome on/
off (p. 25).
