Using the Sampling feature
Sampling in the Pattern mode
In addition to its use in the Voice and Performance modes,
the Sampling mode can also be entered from the Song and
Pattern modes. This lets you record audio (such as vocals,
electric guitar, or audio from an external device), and use it
directly on a Song/Pattern track as a Sample Voice.
In this section, you’ll learn how to record audio data (from
commercially available sample CDs, for example) to the
Pattern track, using the versatile Sampling feature. After
recording the audio, you can slice it into individual Samples,
which can then be played back at any desired tempo—
without compromising the sound or introducing pitch
changes. These step-by-step instructions assume that the
recorded audio data is a one-measure drum pattern in 4/4
time.
Sampling procedure
1
Connect the audio equipment (CD player) to the
MOTIF XF.
For information about how to do this, see page 47.
2 Press the [PATTERN] button to enter the Pattern
mode, then select the Pattern Number and Section.
3 Press the [INTEGRATED SAMPLING] button to
enter the Sampling mode. (The indicator lights.)
The Sampling Main display appears.
4 Press the [F6] Rec button to call up the Record
Setup display, then set each parameter as follows.
Set other parameters as necessary.
5 Press the [F6] Standby button to call up the Record
Standby display.
6 Set the Trigger Mode to “level, and set the Trigger
Level to “1.
7 Play back the audio source (CD player) and adjust
the audio input level with the GAIN knob on the
rear panel to set the appropriate level.
Adjust the GAIN so that the level is high enough for a clean
recording but not so high as to cause clipping or distortion.
NOTE
Please note that the input sound may be clipped or
distorted if the meter reaches maximum level.
8 Stop playback of the audio source (CD player).
9 Press the [F5] button to call up the WAITING
indicator (Trigger Standby status).
10 Start the CD player.
Since the Trigger Level is set to “1” here, sampling will
begin automatically as soon as the audio signal is input
from the CD player. In this example, record a one-measure
drum pattern from the CD.
11 Press the [F6] button to stop sampling, then stop
the CD player.
The wave of the recorded audio signal will be shown on
the display.
12 Press the [SF1] button to hear your newly
recorded sound.
Sampling Edit procedure
Setting the End Point of the Recorded
Sample
The start point of the recorded Sample will probably be at
the correct place—the first beat of the measure—since
Sampling start was set to begin automatically with the
Trigger Level setting. However, the end point may not be at
the end of the measure as desired, since Sampling was
stopped manually. Accordingly, you may need to edit the
End Point of the recorded sample so that playback of the
recorded sample properly matches the beat timing.
Recording Type Select “slice+seq.”
Input Source Select “A/D Input.”
Mono/Stereo Select “stereo.”
Record Next Select “off.”
Frequency Select “44.1kHz.”
Track Select the track to which the Sample Voice is
assigned.
