Pad Play Mode Operation
The [PAD FUNCTION] LED flashes.
The [PAD FUNCTION] LED and the LED of pad 3 are lit.
Pressing the [PAD FUNCTION] key and then pad 3 enables the
setting of the start point. All sample playback stops.
While the pad is held down, the sample assigned to the pad plays in
a loop.
The address of the currently set start point
is shown on the display. If the start point
has not been set, "000000" is shown.
After assigning a sample to a pad, the following three parameters can be changed to specify the playback
position.
•Start point
Normal playback start point. When the pad is pressed,
playback starts from this point.
•End point
Normal playback end point. During one-shot playback,
playback ends when this point is reached. During loop
playback, playback returns to the start point when this
point is reached.
•Offset
By selecting this value, the playback start position can be
shifted forwards. During one-shot playback, playback
starts at the offset point and stops at the end point.
During loop playback, playback starts at the offset point
and returns to the start point when the end point is
reached.
When there is a blank at the beginning and end of the sample, it can be eliminated by
moving the start point and end point.
