same pad bank, press the pad for the sample that you
want to set, and perform steps 3 and 4.

screen.

“Keep Power On!”
Playing an audio input signal (EXT Source)
Even without sampling, the SP-505 lets you use a pad to
control an internal input sound, and start/stop the sound
and apply effects in the same way as a sample.
1. Connect a CD player or mic.
Connect your CD player to the LINE IN jacks, or your
mic to the MIC jack.
* It is not possible to use digital input (COAXIAL/OPTICAL
jacks) as an EXT source.
2. Press [SOURCE SELECT] to select the input.
Select either LINE IN or MIC, depending on the jacks to
which you connected your CD player or mic.
3. When you press [EXT SOURCE], getting it to light, the
external input source will be heard.
When you press [EXT SOURCE] once again to make it go
dark, the external input source will no longer be heard.
4. Use the REC LEVEL knob to adjust the volume.
