Sampling
●
Normalize
This function increases the overall level of the selected wave to ensure that it uses the full
range of digital values. Press the EXECUTE LCD button to normalize the selected wave. No
change will occur if the selected wave already uses the full range of digital values.
●
Volume/Tune
This display can be used to “tune” the wave to fit a specified playback tempo. In other words,
the wave is stretched (tuned down) or compressed (tuned up) so that it plays back over the
specified number of measures at the specified time signature and tempo. This capability is
particularly useful when the sample is a phrase rather than a simple sound. The wave will
only play back at the specified tempo, however, when played at its original pitch (usually the
pitch played by the C3 key).
To ensure smooth looping, adjust the Loop Start/Stop point before using this function.
When this is turned OFF, the pitch of wave
playback will be correspond to keyboard
pitch. When ON, the playback pitch will
remain the same (corresponding to the
pitch of the C3 key) regardless of which key
is pressed.
This can be used to tune the selected wave:
COARSE tunes in semitone increments over
a –63 … +63 range, and FINE tunes in 1-cent
increments over a –50 … +50 range.
Set the volume of
the selected wave.
Press this to actually set the
wave tempo and return to
the parameter display.
Press this to cancel the operation
and return to the parameter display.
Specify the tempo at which
the wave should play.
Specify the number of measures the
wave should play over.
Specify the number of
beats per measure.
• When a LOOP is selected the
entire loop is tuned, but the
portion of the loop between the
Loop Start and Loop End
points is adjusted to fit the
specified number of measures.
Press this to cancel the operation
and return to the parameter display.
