Creating a sampler configuration
The Sampler Configuration dialog allows you to create new sample configurations that can be saved as presets and accessed from the Sampler dialog. Creating new custom configurations requires you to specify the sampler and sample transfer mode. However, the process of creating a custom sampler configuration differs based on which transfer mode is used.

•If your sampler uses SCSI/SMDI transfer, select the SCSI radio button and select your sampler in the
Sampler box.
Note: The Sampler box lists all devices connected to the selected SCSI host, including devices that are not samplers.
5.If desired, enter a value in the Sample bias box. Sample bias is a
Additionally, sample bias can be used to define unique biases for multiple projects. For example, when composing multiple pieces using different samples, it is possible to create unique sampler configurations for each project. Simply establish a unique sample bias to segregate the samples within the sampler.
6.Enter a value in the MIDI channel box to specify which MIDI channel
7.Select the Open loop check box if you want to send SDS sample data immediately upon clicking the Send Sample button. This is an unconditional transfer of sample data (no handshake).
