(Grid Tempo) [040...480(BPM)]

This displays vertical dotted lines in the “sample waveform display” to indicate the resolution and tempo. Use this when you wish to cut or edit the sample data based on a BPM value or beat.

The grid will be displayed if you check and execute the “Grid” (2.1–2e/3.1–2e) utility command. The spacing of the grid is determined by the “Resolution” setting of the “Grid” page menu command, relative to the playback pitch of the base key (the key displayed in gray in “Keyboard & Index” 1.1–1a) at the tempo value you specify here. The grid will begin at the “S (Start)” address (when looping is off) or at the “LpS (Loop Start)” address (when looping is on). This parameter can also be set from the 2.1: Sample Edit, Edit2 page.

This is not related to the setting of the REALTIME CONTROLS C-mode [TEMPO] knob.

3.1–2a: Sample waveform display

Sample waveform display

The waveform of the “SMPL (Sample)” is displayed here (☞ 2.1–2a).

3.1–2b: Sample Address, Zero, LpL, (Grid Tempo)

S (Start) [0000000...]

Specifies the starting address for sample playback. This value is in units of a sample address.

LpS (Loop Start) [0000000...]

Specifies the loop start address for sample playback. This is valid when Loop is On. This value is in units of a sample address, (☞ “S.Ofs” PROG 2.1–2b).

E (End) [0000000...]

Specifies the ending address for sample playback. This value is in units of a sample address.

Loop Start Address and End Address must be located at least eight addresses apart. This setting will be applied automatically when you set the addresses.

Zero (Use Zero) [Off, On]

On (checked): “S (Start),” “E (End),” and “LpS (Loop Start)” parameters can be set only at “zero-cross” addresses where the waveform level crosses ±0 (the center line of the waveform display). (☞ 2.1–2b)

Off (unchecked): “S,” “E,” and “LpS” can be set in steps of 1. This is the normal setting.

LpL (Loop Lock) [Off, On]

This fixes the length of the loop being edited.

On (checked): When the “LpS (Loop Start)” or “End” address is edited, the “E (End)” or “LpS” will be automati- cally adjusted so that the distance between “LpS” and “E (End)” (i.e., the loop length) does not change. This is conve- nient when you are creating a rhythm loop to match a spe- cific tempo.

■3.1–2c: L/R

This option is valid only if a stereo sample is selected.

It switches the display between the L channel and R channel of a stereo sample. (☞ 2.1–2c)

■3.1–2d: ZOOM

These buttons let you zoom-in and zoom-out the “sample waveform display” in the horizontal axis (sample addresses) or vertical axis (sample level). (☞ 2.1–2d)

■3.1–2e: UTILITY

For details on how to select the desired utility function, refer to “2.1–2e: UTILITY.”

☞“Grid” (2.1–2e)

Truncate

This command deletes unwanted data that lies outside of the “S (Start),” “LpS (Loop Start ),” and “E (End )” (3.1–2b). After setting the start address, loop start address, and end address of the sample, use this command to delete unwanted sample data.

1Use “SMPL” (3.1–1b) to select the sample that you wish to edit, and use “S (Start)” or “LpS (Loop Start)” and “E (End)” (3.1–2b) to specify the editing range.

You can press the [AUDITION] key to hear the portion that will be left by the “Truncate” command.

2In the Edit2 page “UTILITY,” choose “Truncate” to open the following dialog box.
