Chapter 4. Changing the Sampling Settings
When changing the sampling settings for a memory
card, the changes may take some time to complete, and it
may appear that operation has stopped momentarily.
Please be aware of this fact beforehand.
Playing Phrases Repeatedly
(Loop Playback)/
Playing the Sound Only Once
(One Shot Playback)
If you have sampled a phrase of several measures and wish
to play it back repeatedly, use Loop Playback.
For sounds (such as drums) that you want to playback only
once when you press the pad, use One Shot Playback.

Having Samples Play Only While the

press the pad, and will stop when you release the pad. i.e.,
the sample will play only while the pad is being pressed.

In Trigger Playback, the sound is played when you press the
pad and then continues even after you release the pad.
The next time you press a pad, operation changes according
to the One Shot or Loop Playback settings.

The sound stops.
fig.r04-03
Use Trigger Playback with Loop Playback when you wish to
continue playing long phrases or looped phrases. You will
also use Trigger Playback with One Shot Playback to play
samples such as drums, so that the sample will be played all
the way to the end even if the pad is pressed for a brief
moment.
* After a sample is recorded, Trigger Playback will be selected
automatically.
* Sounds may fail to stop playing in lengthy samples for which
the Trigger Playback with One Shot Playback setting is used.
To stop sounds from playing, temporarily change the playback
setting to Loop Playback, then press the pad.
