Chapter 2 Wave Editing
Wave
A wave is a combination of a "sound material" created by sampling a sound
of musical instruments, a voice or a performance and the settings at sound
reproduction. A wave is assigned to a playing surface in patch mode so that
it can be used in an actual performance.
The SPD-S stores a maximum of 399 waves in its internal memory and 500
waves on a memory card.
Wave Mode
To enter wave mode, press [WAVE] so it is

Press [-]/[+] to change the wave number.
If you hold down [SHIFT] and press [-]/[+], you can change the wave number in steps of 10. If
you hold down [+] and press [-], or hold down [-] and press [+], the wave number changes
quickly.
Checking the wave tempo and the wave length (time)
The tempo and the length (time) of a wave are displayed if you continue
pressing [FUNC]. The tempo is shown in the format of “
= value” (or “---”
when no value is set) and the length in minutes (m) and seconds (s).

If "I000 OFF" is selected, no
sound is produced. This wave
is designed so it can be
assigned in patch mode to
playing surfaces that you want
to remain silent.

in STEREO and in the FINE
grade has four voices.
If you press [START/STOP] or

wave currently selected is
played back. By pressing [ALL

sounds from being
reproduced.
