Offset and End Point

WaveOffset” and “WaveEnd,” the parameters selected in Step 9, determine which
part of the waveform data is used for to a phrase.
fig.34-21g
In both Offset and End point are indicated by 8-digits values likewise the sample
reading start points (p. 78). (The amount of time indicated by “00000001” is 1/3000
of a second). This does not change with tempo and measure length.
fig.34-21f
WaveOffset:
This specifies and changes the starting point for reading the waveform data of
sample. The specified point is placed at the position determined in Adjust Timing
“Start” (in the second screen).
WaveEnd:
This specifies and changes the end point for reading the waveform data of sample.
If this point is before the end of the segment resulting from the “Duration” setting in
Adjust Timing (in the second screen), then even though still within the phrase, the
sound stops.
If a pad contains a looped sound recorded in Realtime/Step Recording, then the end
point of the loop on the track is designated.
Adjusting the volume setting for each phrase
The upper right of the Sequence Track Edit screen shows the volume of each phrase.
By highlighting this value and turning the TIME/VALUE dial to change it, you can
adjust the volume of the selected phrase (0–100).
fig.34-22
The value prior to the change will reflect the
volume that was specified for the pad you
pressed when recording (p. 90–93). A setting
of “100” is the volume at which the sound
was sampled.

If “LOOP-END” was the
sampling mode used during
Event Recording, you cannot
select a value smaller than that
fixed value.
