● AUTO TRIGGER LEVEL
For most applications the default AUTO TRIGGER LEVEL
setting of “–21.0dB” will provide satisfactory results. If you
want to trigger sampling at a lower or higher level, however , use
the AUTO TRIGGER LEVEL LCD dials to set the level any-
where from –47.6 to –0.3 dB. Below the “–47.6dB” setting is a
“MANUAL” mode in which automatic triggering does not
occur. In the MANUAL mode sampling begins immediately the
START LCD button is pressed.
● PRE EFFECT
Press the PRE EFFECT LCD button to go to the PRE EFFECT
display. This display page allows you to set up a maximum of
three DSP effects to be applied to the source sound as it is
sampled. The actual DSPs used and the default settings are:
Please note that the DSP blocks are connected in series: i.e.
DSP1 → DSP2 → DSP3.
To change a PRE EFFECT DSP setup, select the desired
DSP via the ▲ and ▼ LCD buttons to the left of the display. Use
the TYPE LCD dials to select an effect type, the PARAMETER
LCD dials to select any of the parameters available for the
selected effect type, and the VALUE LCD dials to change the
value of the selected parameter as required. For some effects the
WET/DRY parameter can be used to change the balance be-
tween the direct (“dry”) and effect (“wet”) sound as required.
Press the EXIT LCD button to return to the SAMPLING/
FILE IMPORT display when done.
● Importing Waves From Disk
To import previously-saved wa veform files or standard WA V or
AIFF format files from disk, insert the appropriate disk into the
PSR-8000 floppy disk drive (not necessary if the file to be
loaded is on the optional internal hard disk), then press the FILE
IMPORT LCD button in the SAMPLING/FILE IMPORT
display.
If the optional hard disk is present, use the DIRECTORY
LCD dials to select the floppy disk or hard disk directory
containing the file(s) to be loaded. All loadable files within the
selected directory will be displayed in the FILE LIST. Use the
FILE LIST LCD dials to select the file you want to load, then
press the EXECUTE LCD button to load the file.
Press the EXIT LCD button to return to the SAMPLING/
FILE IMPORT display when done. After loading the amount
of remaining sampling time will be reduced by the size of the
loaded data.
• Since all PSR-8000 samples are monaural, stereo
DSP effects may not produce the expected sound.
• If the sample memory is full, or the selected file is
larger than the available sample memory, an alert
message will appear and loading will not be possible.
•A icon between the FILE LIST number and file
name indicates a WAV or AIFF format wave file, while
a icon indicates a waveform file.
