Creating and Editing Samples (Sample Mode)

If you normalize at a low setting and then normalize at a high setting, the audio quality will deteriorate. This means that if you intend to normalize several times, you should start from the higher value and work downward.

Reverse

The sample will be reversed between Edit Start and Edit End. If you want the sample to play backwards, execute Reverse to reverse the sample from the beginning.

Region

The region of the sample between Edit Start and Edit End can be stored in internal memory as a separate sample. The original sample will remain unchanged.

Perform the following procedure.

1.Select the region that you want to extract as a separate sample, and execute Region.

2.In the SAMPLE Edit Region window, select the sample number to which you want to paste the extracted region of the sample, and touch <OK>.

3.Assign a name to the new sample, and touch <OK>.

If in step 2 you select a sample number that already has a sample, the sample data between Edit Start and Edit End will be added to the end of the selected sample.

Loop Region Settings

When the loop switch (p. 65) is ON, you can specify the region that will be played back as a loop. The region of the sample between Loop Start and Loop End will be played back repeatedly.

In the SAMPLE Loop FWD screen that appears when you touch <Loop FWD>, specify the loop region for forward playback. In the SAMPLE Loop BWD screen that appears when you touch <Loop BWD>, specify the loop region for backward playback.

Immediately after sampling or loading a sample, Loop Start will be set to the beginning of the sample and Loop End to the end of the sample.

If you set Loop Start and Loop End to locations within the sample, the sample will play back from the beginning, and then the region between Loop Start and Loop End will play back repeatedly.

The data in the V-Synth is handled as 44.1 kHz data, which means there are 44,100 data samples per second. The shortest possible loop that can be set is 16 data samples.

Loop range settings are ignored when the Playback Mode (p. 43) is set to “STEP” or “EVENT.”
