Resampling the song playback to create a WAVE file on the hard drive

Here’s how you can play back a song you created, and sample it to the hard drive When you sample to the hard disk, a WAVE file will be created.

If you want to sample to an external SCSI hard disk, make connections as described on PG p.298.

1In Sequencer mode, select the song from which you want to create a WAVE file.

Either create a song, or use Disk mode to load a previ- ously-created song.

A maximum of 80 minutes for either mono or stereo can be written to hard disk in one sampling operation (monaural: approximately 440 Mbytes, stereo: approximately 880 Mbytes).

2Access the Sequencer P0: Play/REC, Sampling page.

Specify the sampling method.

“Source BUS”: L/R

“Trigger”: Sequencer START SW

“Save to”: DISK, “Mode”: Stereo

3Select the page menu command “Select Directory,” and specify the destination to which the WAVE file will be written.

Use drive select and the Open and Up buttons to select the directory in which the WAVE file will be saved.

If you want to create a new directory, access the Disk mode Utility page, and execute the page menu com- mand “Create Directory.”

Press the text edit button to access the text edit dialog box, and input a filename (up to six characters). Leave “Take No.” checked. The number at the right of “Take No.” will be input as the last two characters of the filename.

This number will increment each time you sample, ensuring that the filename will not be the same even if you sample repeatedly.

After you have made the settings, press the Done but- ton to close the dialog box.

4Set “Sample Time” to the length that you want to sample.

Set this to a length slightly greater than the length of the song.

5Set the recording level.

Press the SAMPLING [REC] key.

It will take between several seconds to nearly a minute from the moment you press the SAMPLING [REC] key until the TRITON STUDIO enters standby mode (i.e., until the SAMPLING [REC] key LED changes from blinking to lit). This time is required in order to allocate sufficient space on the hard disk.

Press the SEQUENCER [START/STOP] key to play back the song, and adjust the resampling volume while you watch the level meters.

Set “Recording Level” to –12.0(dB). If the level meter indication is too low, use the VALUE controller to raise the level from –12.0 as far as possible without causing the “CLIP!!” indicator to appear. The output volume will not change at this time, but your adjustment will affect the data that will be sampled. (☞p.105)

The power-on default setting is –12 dB. At the –12 dB setting, CLIP will not appear even if the song is played back at the maximum level.

When you finish making adjustments, press the SAM- PLING [REC] key.

Press the SEQUENCER [START/STOP] key to stop the song playback. Then press the [LOCATE] key.

6Start sampling.

Press the SAMPLING [REC] key and then the SAM- PLING [START/STOP] key to enter recording-standby mode.

Press the SEQUENCER [START/STOP] key to play back the song. Sampling will begin at the same time.
