NOTE:

If you select a track to which a sample has already been assigned, the bracket display will be , and when you press the [OK] button the display will ask “REPLACE SAMPLE?” If you execute sampling, the data in the sampling display will be overwritten and lost. If you wish to keep the existing data, you should either select a different vacant track, or save the song to disk etc. before you continue.

6. Press [OK] to register the track selection and move to the parameter and input-monitoring screen. You use this screen to adjust the three recording parameters and to monitor and adjust the input level.

NOTE:

You can often reverse the action of the [OK] button by pressing the [CANCEL] button. In this case, for example, you can press [CANCEL] to return to the SELECT TRACK screen.

The screen presents three parameters, as shown below.

Let’s leave the frequency at 44K and the resolution at 16BIT, but let’s change the format to “MONO L” (so that the SU700 will record a monaural sample from the left channel of the stereo CD).
