Playing samples
You can adjust the relationship between the force used when
striking pads and the volume of sample playback.
1.
Hold down [CANCEL] and press [FIXED VELOCITY].
2.
While viewing the display, use the CTRL 3 knob to
adjust the sensitivity.
“-L-”: A loud volume will be produced even if you strike
the pads softly.
“-M-”: Medium sensitivity.
“-H-”: There will be no sound unless you strike the pads
strongly.
3.
Press [SAMPLING] to save the setting.
4.
When you’ve finished making the adjustment, press
[CANCEL] to return to normal operation.
If you turn [FIXED VELOCITY] on, the samples will play at a
fixed volume regardless of how strongly you strike the pads.
Here’s how to specify the volume that will be produced when
[FIXED VELOCITY] is on.
1.
Hold down [FIXED VELOCITY] and use the CTRL 3 knob
to adjust the fixed velocity.
Any value from 16 through 127 can be specified.
2.
While still holding down [FIXED VELOCITY], press
[SAMPLING] to save the setting.
By holding down [ROLL] and turning the CTRL 3 knob you
can adjust the speed of the roll. While viewing the display,
hold down [ROLL] and press [SAMPLING] to save the setting
as follows.
4: Quarter notes
4.3: Quarter note triplets
8: Eighth note
8.3: Eighth note triplets
16: Sixteenth notes
16.3: Sixteenth note triplets
32: Thirty-second notes
32.3: Thirty-second note triplets
Pads for which GATE is turned on will start playing when you
press the pad, and will stop playing when you release the
pad (Gate playback).
In contrast, pads for which GATE is turned off will start
playing when you press the pad, and will continue playing
even when you release the pad (Trigger playback). Playback
will stop when you reach the end (End Point) of the sample
(only if Loop is turned off).
If you want a long phrase to continue playing, you should use
Trigger playback + Loop playback. If you are playing drum-
type samples, you should use Trigger playback + One-shot
playback. The sample will play to its end even if you press the
pad for only an instant.
After sampling, the following settings are made automatically.
If the length resulting from automatic BPM calculation(p. 32) is
less than one measure: Trigger Playback
If the length resulting from automatic BPM calculation (p. 32) is
one measure or greater: Gate Playback
If you have specified Trigger playback + One-shot playback
for a long sample, the sound may continue playing for longer
than you would like. In this case, you can stop the playback by
pressing [CANCEL] four times in rapid succession.
Gate on/off can be specified independently for each pad.
1.
Make sure that [PATTERN SELECT] is extinguished.
If it is lit, press [PATTERN SELECT] so its light is turned
off.
2.
Press the pad whose Gate on/off setting you want to
change, making it the current pad.
The sample will play, and the pad will blink.
If you press [REMAIN], the current pad will blink, allowing you
to check which pad is the current pad.
