If you press the popup button, all multisamples of internal ROM will be displayed, grouped into fif- teen categories.

Use the tabs at left and right to select a category, and select the desired multisample.

About High/Low

You can specify two multisamples for an oscillator, and use velocity (keyboard playing dynamics) to switch between the two multisamples. This capability is called “velocity multisample switching.”

1Select different multisamples for “High” and “Low.”

2Set the “Velocity M.Sample SW Lo Hi” parame- ter to set a value of (for example) 100 for OSC1.

The Low and High multisamples will be switched at this velocity value.

3Play the keyboard softly, and the multisample specified for “Low” will sound.

4Play the keyboard strongly, and the multisample specified for “High” will sound.

5Adjust the “Lvl” (level) for “High” and “Low” multisamples to set their volume balance.

If you do not wish to use this function, set the “Velocity M.Sample SW Lo → Hi” value to 001. Only the High multisample will sound.

Rev (Reverse) check box

If this is checked, the multisample will be played back- ward. This can produce interesting results when used on sound-effects, etc. Normally you will not check this.

When “Oscillator Mode” = Double

To use OSC2, set “Oscillator Mode” to Double in the Program Basic tab.

In the same way as for OSC1, you can set High and Low multisamples for OSC2.

The playback pitch can be set independently. By using the same multisample with slightly different “Tune” settings, you can “detune” the oscillators to produce a richer sound.

It will be convenient to use the page menu com- mand “Copy Oscillator” to make the oscillator set- tings match each other.

When “Oscillator Mode” = Drums

In the Program Basic tab, set “Oscillator Mode” to Drums. When this is set to Drums, you will be able to create a drum program.

This will select a drum kit instead of a multisample. The TRITON provides sixteen factory preset drum kits that are suitable for a wide variety of music. For the drum kit names, refer to the separate Voice Name List. Here you can only select a drum kit. To edit or create a drum kit, use Global P5: Drum Kit (p.90).

Velocity Zone tab

Here you can specify the range of velocities that will sound oscillators 1 and 2. In the example shown above, the velocity ranges are as follows.

OSC1 will sound for all velocity values.

OSC2 will sound only for strongly played notes (64 and above).

You can use Velocity Multisample Switching in addition to this (“About High/Low”). For this

example, set “OSC1” in “Velocity M.Sample SW Lo→Hi” to 032 and “OSC2” to 096. The settings are shown as horizontal lines in the velocity zone display.

In this example, the multisamples will sound over four levels.

Velocity values 001–031: sound only the OSC1 Low

multisample.

Velocity values 032–063: sound only the OSC1 High multisample.

Velocity values 064–095: sound the OSC1 High multisample and the OSC2 Low multisample.

Velocity values 096–127: sound the OSC1 High multisample and the OSC2 High multisample.
