Sampling the sound of an audio device to create a Drum Voice
In the previous section on
page 94, you learned how to record a Sample using a microphone. Here, you’ll learn how to record
Samples from an audio device, such as a CD player or MD player, and use the Samples to create a Drum Voice.
In order to use the Sampling function, DIMM modules must be installed to the instrument. For details on installing DIMMs, see page 289.
Depending on the size of the audio (sample) data obtained via the Sampling function, you may not be able to save all of the desired data to a SmartMedia
card (maximum capacity: 128MB). For this reason, we recommend using a large-capacity USB storage device for your Sampling data.
Follow steps #1 - 8 on page 73.
Type: sample
Source:A/D
Next:on
Mono/Stereo:stereo
Frequency:44.1k
When creating a Drum Voice consisting of many separate
Samples, you’ll want to quickly be able to record a Sample,
assign it to a key, then move on to the next one. To do this
smoothly and easily, set the Next parameter to “on.”
For details about each parameter, see page 251.
nIf the Voice parameter above is set to “off,” you won’t be able to play
the sampled sound as a Voice after completing this operation.
However, you can call up the sampled sound by selecting a
Waveform. For details on how to select a Waveform, see page 174.
●Setting the Confirm function
When the [F2] CONFM (Confirm function) is turned on ( is
indicated), you can easily listen back to your just-recorded
sample and conveniently re-record it if you’re not satisfied
with the results. Here, set the [F2] CONFM button on.
●Setting the Trigger mode
The Trigger mode lets you determine how the Sampling
actually starts. For example, you can start the Sampling
simply by pressing the button or when the Song/Pattern
playback reaches a specified point. Here, set the TrggrMode
(Trigger mode) to “level” which lets you start sampling as
soon as the input signal from the audio device exceeds the
specified Trigger Level.
●Setting the Trigger Level
When the Trigger mode is set to “level,” you’ll also need to set
the Trigger Level. This determines when sampling actually
starts, depending on the level of the input signal of the audio
device. As the sound plays, notice the movement of the level
meter (bar), and when the bar crosses the Trigger Level arrow.
If necessary, select the Trigger Level value and use the data
dial to change it, moving the arrow as low or as high as needed.

completed, you can hear the sampled sound by pressing the
