Chapter 4. Changing the Sampling Settings
4. Press the pad again (or in the case of Gate playback,
release the pad).
When [MARK] lights, the setting is complete.
* If the setting was not made as desired, press the lit [MARK]
button while the sound is still playing to make it go dark, and
re-do the procedure from step 1.
Finely Adjusting the Start Point
and End Point
To make fine adjustments to the Start Point and End Point,
use the following procedure.
fig.r04-13
1. Confirm that [PATTERN SELECT] is not lit.
If [PATTERN SELECT] is lit, press it so that the buttons
light goes out.
2. Press the pad to which the sample you want to change
is assigned.
The pad will light, and the sample will sound. This pad
becomes the current pad.
3. Press [START/END/LEVEL], and confirm that the
button has lit.
4. Turn the CTRL 1 (START) knob.
The center position sets the current Start Point; turn the
knob to the left to move the Start Point to an earlier
point, or to the right to move the Start Point to a later
point.
* If the Start Point is set at the beginning of the sample, then the
Start Point will not move to a earlier point, even when the
knob is turned to the left.
* You cannot set the Start Point and End Point within 100
milliseconds of each other.
* If you want to cancel the move, return the CTRL 1 (START)
knob to the center position, setting it so that “0” is displayed.
5. Turn the CTRL 2 (END) knob.
The center position sets the current End Point; turn the
knob to the left to move the End Point to an earlier point,
or to the right to move the End Point to a later point.
* If the End Point is set at the very end of the sample, then the
End Point will not move to a later point, even when the knob is
turned to the right.
* You cannot set the Start Point and End Point within 100
milliseconds of each other.
* If you want to cancel the move, return the CTRL 2 (END)
knob to the center position, setting it so that “0” is displayed.
6. Press [START/END/LEVEL], and confirm that the
button has turned off.
The Start Point and End Point settings are recorded.
* You can move the Start Point and End Point in a single
operation up to a total time of roughly 130 milliseconds.
If you want to move beyond this range, you will merely need to
repeat Steps 3–6.
* If the resulting Start Point and End Point become the start
and end of the sample, the [MARK] light goes out.
* If the [MARK] light is off for a sample, when the Start Point
or End Point is moved, [MARK] then lights up.
* When the Start Point or End Point is changed, the sample’s
BPM (tempo) then also changes automatically. However,
values to the right of the dot are rounded off, which results in a
slight inaccuracy in timing.
