BASIC OPERATIONS (Cont.)

Changing the Sample Parameters:

Changing the sample parameters allows you to change the sample's volume and pitch. A higher value will increase the pitch percentage or volume. It's important to understand that the pitch value is basically a speed adjustment and has nothing to do with tonal quality. The values can be either a momentary change or set adjustment. The sample values are changed in three easy steps, while in sample playback mode:

Changing the Sample Parameters - Speed

While a sample is playing push the PARAMETER Time Knob (31). One tap will display a percentage in the VFD Display (3). Turning the knob in a clockwise direction will increase your pitch. Turning the knob in a counter- clockwise direction will decrease the parameters value.

Changing the Sample Parameters - Volume

Changing the Sample Parameters - Hold Function

Hold Function - This mode will allow you to save and lock your param- eter adjustments, if the hold function is not activated before you set your parameters, your parameter adjustments will be momentary. If you select the HOLD BUTTON (26) all parameters will remain until changed again or power is shut off, unless they are stored in to the unit's memory.
