4. Touch <Edit>.
The SAMPLE Loop FWD screen appears.

5. Touch one of the tabs in the left side of the screen to access
the desired editing screen.
<Edit>: Edit the sample of the specified region (p. 66)
<Loop FWD>: Specify the loop region for forward playback (p.
68)
<Loop BWD>: Specify the loop region for backward playback (p.
68)
For details on each editing operation, refer to the corresponding
page.
6. When you have finished making settings, press [EXIT] to
return to the SAMPLE Top screen.
Functions Common to All Editing
Screens
“Start,” “End,” and “Current” Settings
The V-Synth uses seven terms to indicate locations within a sample.
Sample Start: Beginning of the sample
Sample End: End of the sample
Loop Start, Loop End: When the Loop Play is ON, the region
between these two points will be played repeatedly.
Edit Start, Edit End: Editing will affect the region between these
two points.
Current: This is the currently selected location of the sample.
Move the cursor to “Start,” “End,” or “Current” to select the point
that you want to specify. Then specify the location by turning the
VALUE dial, by using [INC/+][DEC/-], or by dragging your finger
over the sample in the screen.
• The region of the sample between Edit Start and Edit End is
displayed with the color inverted.
• When Current = Loop/Edit Start, moving Loop/Edit Start will
cause Current to change as well.
It is not possible to move Loop/Edit Start to the right of Loop/
Edit End.
(LENGTH LOCK)
This locks the length of the region between the start point (Start) and
end point (End) of the sample. It is convenient to use this when you
already know the length of the sample that you need, and want to
find the right region to use.
After the length has been locked, you can turn the VALUE dial, use
[INC/+] [DEC/-], or drag your finger over the sample in the screen
to adjust the Start and End locations while maintaining the distance
between these two points.
You can also use Adjust (p. 65) or Zero Cross Search (p. 66) while
the length of the sample is locked.
(LOOP)
This switches loop playback on/off. Turn this on if you want the
loop region specified in the Loop FWD/BWD screen to play
repeatedly.
(PREVIEW)
This plays the sample. During playback, you can touch this once
again to stop playback.
(Adjust)
In the Loop FWD/BWD screen, the Adjust function moves the Loop
Start, Loop End, or Current locations to the nearest of the following
locations 1–5.
In edit screens, the Adjust function moves the Edit Start, Edit End, or
Current locations to the nearest of the following locations 1–7.
1 Sample Start location
2 Sample End location
3 Loop Start location
4 Loop End location
5 Current location
6 Edit Start location
7 Edit End location
Move the cursor to the point that you want to adjust (“Start,” “End,”
or “Current”), and touch or .
Touching will move the point toward the left, and touching
will move it toward the right.
In the SAMPLE Encode screen (p. 69), this will move the Current
location to the closest event.
For example, if you wish to touch <PREVIEW> to check whether
the results of your editing were satisfactory, you can jump the
current location.
In some cases nothing may happen, due to the relation between
points or the Length Lock setting.
