Adjusting the Start and End Point
After creating a sample, you may decide to change
its start and end point—the SP-303 can easily set
new start and end points. Use the following
procedure:
1.
Press PATTERN SELECT so it's not lit.
2.
Press the pad you want to edit. The pad lights,
and the sample sounds.
3.
Press START/END/LEVEL so it's lit.
4.
At the location where you wish to set the start
point, press MARK. MARK blinks and “---“
appears in the display.
5.
At the location where you wish to set the end
point, press MARK again. MARK lights,
indicating that the process is finished.
Note: 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.
Deleting Unwanted Portions (Truncate)
When you specify Start/End Points, unused
waveform data may remain, taking up valuable
memory space. By deleting this unwanted data, you
can make more efficient use of memory.
1.
Press PATTERN SELECT so it's not lit.
2.
Press the pad you wish to truncate—the pad
lights and the sample sounds. If Start and End
Points have been set, MARK should be lit.
3.
Press DEL so it's lit. Although the pads also blink
at this time, don't press the pads.
4.
Press MARK. “trC” should appear in the display.
5.
Press DEL and it lights. The dots in the display
blink. During the truncate process, all pads from
1 -8 light up, and then turn off, starting with Pad
1, indicating the progress of the truncation
procedure. When the dots stop blinking and
remain off, truncation is complete.
Note: Please note that truncation takes some time
.
Never turn off the power while the dots are blinking.
This may result in corruption not only of the sample
currently being truncated, but may also damage other
samples as well as the memory card.
