(2) Auto Sampling

Besides the manual sampling procedure using the [RECORD] key as described above, the ST-224 also allows auto sampling where the start and stop of sampling is controlled automatically. There are two auto sampling modes: the auto recording mode where sampling starts automatically when the signal level exceeds a certain threshold, and the auto stop mode where sampling stops automatically after a preset interval.

STEP 1 Connect the sound source and adjust the input level. Then press the [RECORD] key.

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

the [RECORD] key flashes.

Sampling

STEP 2

Select the desired sampling grade and the mono/stereo setting.

 

 

 

 

 

STEP 3

To perform sampling in auto recording mode, hold down the [SPECIAL] key.

 

 

 

In this mode, sampling will start when the signal level exceeds a

SPECIAL

 

 

certain threshold (trigger level). This is useful for example for

 

 

 

sampling drums or percussion sounds.

 

 

 

While holding down the [SPECIAL] key, the currently selected trigger

 

 

 

level appears on the display. You can use the [-] and [+] keys to

 

 

 

change the trigger level. The following settings are available.

 

 

 

• ArMoFF (default setting)

 

 

 

Sampling starts immediately when [RECORD] key is pressed (auto

 

 

 

recording mode is off).

 

 

 

• ArM 1 - ArM 3

 

 

 

Auto recording mode is on. Higher figures mean a higher trigger

 

 

 

level.

 

 

 

 

 

STEP 4 To perform auto stop sampling, hold down the [PLAY/STOP] key.

In this mode, sampling will stop automatically after a certain interval

PLAY/STOP

(called the auto sampling time) has elapsed. This is useful for

 

example for sampling guitar phrases that you play yourself.

 

While holding down the [PLAY/STOP] key, the currently selected auto

 

sampling time appears on the display. (The default setting is oFF.)
