Recording a sound to a pad—Sampling
Preventing accidental erasure of pads—Bank Protect
The samples assigned to the pads can be protected against accidental erasure so that
they are not lost by unintended operations or by inadvertently overwriting them. A
protected pad bank and its samples are handled as follows.
If you attempt to sample, a warning of “Bank is Protected.” appears, and sampling
will not be possible.
If you attempt to change setting of Pad Parameter and Pad Bank Parameter, a
warning of “Bank is Protected.”
Editing operations that would affect the contents of the pad bank, such as deleting
the entire pad bank or an individual sample, will produce a warning message, and
will not be executed.
Editing operations that require you to specify a writing destination (such as
rearranging samples or Time Stretch) cannot be executed if the writing destination
is protected.
