Sampling Mode [SAMPLING]

4 Press the [F1] SELECT button, then press the [F6] REC button.

When the User Voice indicated on the [F1] SELECT display contains no audio data, the Sampling Standby display appears.

When the User Voice indicated on the [F1] SELECT display contains the audio data, a confirmation message prompts you whether or not to overwrite the already recorded User Voice. If you do not want to overwrite the User Voice, press the [DEC/NO] button, select a different User Voice having no audio data, then press the [F6] REC button again.

1TrggrMode (Trigger Mode)

Determines the method by which Sampling will be triggered. Normally, set this to “level.”

Settings

 

level, manual

 

 

 

level

Sampling starts as soon as an input signal

 

exceeding the specified Trigger Level 2 is

 

received.

manual

Sampling starts soon after you press the [F6]

 

START button. This setting lets you manually

 

start Sampling, regardless of the input level

 

from audio source.

BTrigger Level

When the Trigger Mode 1 is set to “level,” you’ll also need to set the Trigger Level. The level set here will be indicated as a triangle in the level meter. For best results, set this as low as possible to capture the entire signal, but not so low as to record unwanted noise.

Range

1 – 127

 

 

CRecMonitor

Determines the output level of the monitor for the input sig- nal. This monitor signal is output from the PHONES jack or the OUTPUT R and L/MONO jacks.

Range

0 – 127

 

 

DRecGain

This parameter is available only when the Source is set to “resample” and determines the recording gain when resam- pling. The higher the value, the greater the volume of the res- ampled sound. Before executing the Sampling (Recording) operation, you can set the appropriate gain by checking the volume via the Level Meter while hitting the pad.

Settings -12dB, -6dB, +0dB, +6dB, +12dB

E[F6] START

Press this button to start Sampling. When the Trigger mode 1 is set to “level,” pressing the [F6] START button calls up the WAITING indication on the display, and actual Sampling does not start until the proper level signal is received. When audio signal exceeding the specified Trigger Level 2 is input to the instrument, the RECORDING indication replaces the WAITING indication and Sampling starts. When the Trigger Mode 1 is set to “manual,” pressing this button starts Sampling immediately.

5 Adjust the input sound level for optimum level.

Try to set the input level as high as possible without clipping for the best sound quality.

Follow the instructions below to adjust the input level.

•When the Recording Source is set to “AUX IN,” adjust the input signal level by using the GAIN knob on the rear panel. If you cannot adjust the input level appropriately, change the Mic/Line setting (page 128) in the Utility mode.

•When the Recording Source is set to “resample,” adjust the input signal level by setting the RecGain parameter.

6 Press the [F6] START button to start the Sampling operation.

•When the Trigger Mode 1 is set to “manual,” press- ing the button immediately starts Sampling (a RECORDING indication appears in the display).

•When the Trigger Mode 1 is set to “level,” pressing the button enables Sampling but does not start it (a WAITING indication appears in the display).

7 Play the sound to be sampled.

When the Trigger Mode 1 is set to “level” and an audio signal exceeding the specified Trigger Level 2 is input to the instrument, the RECORDING indication replaces the WAITING indication and Sampling starts. During Sampling, a graphic representation of the recorded audio appears in the display.
