time (percentage).
Sampling memory capacity
The DJX has memory space for approximately 6 seconds of
sampling. Up to twelve separate samples can be recorded.
(For information on recording additional samples, see page 74.)
Listed below are some example percentage figures for remain-
ing available recording time, with the corresponding actual
time (in seconds).
When all twelve available samples have been recorded (even if
there is still available recording time), the following display
appears:
Mem Full
BankFull
Keep in mind that although a total of six seconds are available
for sampling, no one sample can be longer than three seconds.
(The DJX automatically stops sampling after three seconds.)
When there is no more available recording time, the following
display appears:
% Free Available Time (approx.)
100 6 seconds
80 4.8 “
75 4.5 “
50 3.0 “
25 1.5 “
10 0.6 “
7 Exit from the Sampling mode.
Press the RECORD button (in the DIGITAL SAMPLING section) again. Voice
#284 (“Sampled”) is automatically selected for playing.
Turn the INPUT LEVEL knob to its minimum (or disconnect the MIC or LINE
IN input), and set the MASTER VOLUME dial appropriately for playing the
voice. Notice that the pitch and speed of the sample “follows” the key-
board: Playing keys lower than the original results in a lower pitch and
slower speed; playing higher keys results in higher pitch and faster speed.
Loss of power means loss
of samples!
As long as the AC adaptor
remains connected (or a
working set of batteries is
installed), the DJX retains
the sample data, even if the
STAND BY/ON switch is
turned off. However, if
power is interrupted for any
reason, all sample data will
be lost. (In this case, the
original factory samples are
automatically reloaded to
voice #284.) Make sure to
save any important
samples, by using the
Sampling Data Bulk Dump
function (page 97).

Make sure to stop sampling
immediately at the end of
the sound. Recording extra
unneeded sound decreases
the amount of available
memory for additional
samples.
