Sampling Out Try Let's

Let's Try Out Sampling

(1) Manual Sampling

This section explains how to use the [RECORD] key to manually specify the start and end point of the sampling process. Manual sampling is convenient for example for quickly sampling a desired rhythm or bass pattern while listening to a CD.

Except for special cases such as personal use, unauthorized sampling of material from copyrighted sources (including but not limited to CDs, records, tapes, video clips, broadcast material) is prohibited.

• In the factory default condition, the ST-224 will read the preset sample sources from

NOTE backup memory into the main memory. Also in this condition, it is possible to sample a new source and store the result in a free area of the main memory, but for maximum recording length, you should first erase some or all preset samples from the main memory ( ➔ p. 36).

•The sampled waveform is temporarily stored in the main memory, but it will be lost if the unit is turned off without first transferring the waveform data to the internal backup memory or external data cards. (The next time the unit is turned on, the contents of the backup memory will be read into the main memory.) Be sure to store important sample data ( ➔ p. 59).

Connect the sound source (CD player or microphone etc.) to the [INPUT R] and [INPUT

L/MONO] jacks ( ➔ p. 8 – 9).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

STEP 2

Press the [RECORD] key.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The ST-224 goes into the sampling standby mode, and the LED of

 

 

the [RECORD] key flashes. A number for the new sample is shown on

When wishing to change the sampling grade (sound quality), press the [GRADE] key.

 

The currently selected grade appears on the display. You can change

the grade between three settings by holding down the [GRADE] key

 

 

and using the [-] and [+] keys.
