Sampling procedure
 
Sampling
 
4.
 
In the Volume section of the panel, use [INPUT] to 
adjust the input level of the external source.
 
*
If the input level is excessive, the word “CLIP” will appear at the 
lower right of the level meter in the screen, and the CLIP indicator at 
the upper right of the meter will light.
*
Using a connection cable that contains a resistor can cause the sound 
level to be low. Use a connection cable that does not contain a resistor.
*
The level meter shows the level after the signal has passed through the 
effects (compressor, multi-effects, reverb) and the mastering effect. If 
you want to see the actual input level, turn off all effects and the 
mastering effect (p. 88, p. 108).
(During Solo sampling, effects cannot be applied to the external input 
sound.)
 
5.
 
Press [F6 (Start)] to begin sampling.
 
You cannot save a sample that is larger than 128 MB 
(approximately 24 minutes of monaural or 12 minutes of stereo).
 
If you are not using a memory card, you cannot save a sample that is 
larger than 16 MB (approximately 180 seconds of monaural or 90 
seconds of stereo).
 
*
Even if you expand the memory (DIMM), you cannot save a sample 
that is larger than 128 MB. (However, you can play it.)
 
6.
 
Press [F5 (Stop)] to stop sampling.

7.
 
Press [EXIT] to go back to where you were before 
you entered the Sampling screen.
 
Dividing a sample during 
sampling
 
1.
 
During sampling, press [F6 (Divide)].
 
The sample will be divided at the point where you pressed the 
button, and the subsequent material will be sampled as a 
sample of the next number.
 
*
When sampling in mono, you can divide the material into a maximum 
of 256 samples. When sampling in stereo, you can divide the material 
into a maximum of 128 samples (L/R total 256 samples).
 
Samples that you load can be used in patches or rhythm sets 
in the same way as waves.
 
Samples that you load will be lost when you turn off the power. If 
you want to keep them, you must Save them (p. 123).
 
About the volume when resampling
 
The volume of a phrase that you resample may be less than the 
volume of the original phrase. If necessary, execute the Normalize 
command (p. 121) to raise the volume.
Sampling 
Length
 
When Stop Trigger is BEAT
 
1–20000
Number of beats to contin-
ue sampling
 
When Stop Trigger is TIME
 
00’00”010–
50’00”000
length of time to continue 
sampling
The maximum value will depend on the amount 
of memory.
* This parameter cannot be specified if Stop Trig-
ger is set to MANUAL.
Auto Trig-
ger Level
0–7
Volume level at which 
sampling will begin when 
Auto Trig is ON
A setting of 0 is the min-
imum.
Gap Time
500, 1000, 1500, 
2000 ms
Length of silence at which 
the sample will be divided
Whenever there is a si-
lent region longer than 
the specified time, the 
sample will be divided 
at that point, and the 
next sample number will 
be assigned to the sound 
that follows.
* This parameter is valid 
only when you are using 
Auto Divide Sampling.

Explanation
Cautions when using a microphone
Howling could be produced depending on the location of 
microphones relative to speakers. This can be remedied by:
1. Changing the orientation of the microphone(s).
2. Relocating microphone(s) at a greater distance from 
speakers.
3. Lowering volume levels.
*
If you use a microphone, connect the ground terminal to an 
electrical ground (p. 15).
About the sample numbers chosen during 
sampling
The samples created when you execute the sampling operation 
are placed in an area where there are at least 256 consecutive 
unused numbers in the sample list.
*
You cannot perform sampling if there are not at least 256 
consecutive unused numbers in the sample list. You will need to 
delete unneeded samples (p. 124) in order to allocate 256 or more 
consecutive free numbers.
