SAMPLE PROCESS

Use to: Perform various types of processing on sample waveforms.

●These jobs can only be used on nonempty sample tracks. You cannot select the AU- DIO IN or MASTER track (since these tracks never contain samples).

●Four of these jobs can be used to reduce the size of the selected sample in memory, thereby freeing up additional space for new sample recording. Specifically, the fol- lowing jobs can be used for this purpose: TRIM, FREQ. CONVERT, BIT CONVERT, and STEREO TO MONO.

●The following jobs are available.

TRIM	Deletes the “unused” parts at the beginning and end of
	the waveform (the part before the start point and the
	part after the end point).
REVERSE	Reverses the waveform (so that the sound runs back-
	wards).
NORMALIZE	Proportional adjustment of waveform amplitude (for
	better dynamic range).
FREQ. CONVERT	Reduces the sampling frequency.
BIT CONVERT	Reduces the bit resolution.
STEREO TO MONO	Changes stereo sample (two waveforms) to monaural
	sample (one waveform).

<TRIM>

This job erases the extraneous parts or the waveform: specifically, the part of the waveform existing prior to the current start-point setting, and the part of the waveform that follows the current end-point setting. You can use this job to increase the

amount of memory available for new sample recording.

Following execution, the start-point and end-point settings will coincide with the actual start and end of the waveform. In particular, the start-point value will become 00000000.

Start point	End point
(=00004567)	(=03334567)

TRIM

Start point	End point
(=00000000)	(=03330000)
