Korg music workstation User Manual

1 In “Source BUS,” select the source that you want to 

The sound being sent to the bus you select here will be 
sampled.

 The sound being sent to the L/R bus will be sam-

pled.
Indiv.1/2:

 The sound being sent to the Individual 1, 2 

bus will be sampled.

For examples of these settings, refer to the various 
examples of sampling. (

☞p.37, 43, 45, 47, 115)

2 Use “Trigger” to specify how sampling will begin.

The available trigger methods will differ depending on 
the mode.

Sampling mode:
Sampling START SW, Note On, Threshold
Program, Combination modes:
Sampling START SW, Note On
Sequencer mode:
Sampling START SW, Note On, Threshold, Sequencer 
START SW

Here we will describe the Sampling START SW and 
Note On that can be used in all modes. For details on 
trigger methods suitable for various purposes, refer to 
the various examples of sampling on p.38, 43, 45, 47, 
115 or PG p.4, 37, 56, and 97.

When you press the SAM-

PLING [REC] key, you will enter sampling-standby 
mode, and sampling will begin when you press the 
SAMPLING [START/STOP] key.

When you press the SAMPLING [REC] key 

and then the SAMPLING [START/STOP] key, you will 
enter sampling-standby mode, and sampling will 
begin when you play the keyboard.

Next we will specify the location into which the data will 
be sampled, select mono or stereo sampling, and specify 
the sampling time.

REC Sample Setup settings are made in Sampling mode, 
and Sampling Setup settings are made in Combination, 
Program, or Sequencer mode. These settings are main-
tained independently for each mode.

Use the following pages to set them.

1 Use “Save to” to specify the location into which the 

 The sample will be written into sample memory 

(RAM).

If you select RAM, you can also specify the writing-
destination RAM bank.
In Sampling mode, this is specified by “Bank.”
In other modes, this is specified by the page menu 
command “Select Bank & Smpl No.”

When you select “Select Bank & Smpl No.,” the fol-
lowing dialog box will appear.

Specify the “Bank” in this dialog box.
“Sample No.” specifies the writing-destination sample 
number. If “Sample Mode” is set to Stereo, specify L 
and R.
If you check “Program” in the “Convert to” area, the 
sample will automatically be converted to a program 
immediately after the sample has been written into 
RAM. This is convenient when you want to hear the 
sampled sound immediately.
At the right, use “Program” and “MS” to specify the 
program number and multisample number of the pro-
gram that will be created by the conversion.
Use “Orig.Key” to specify the key that will play the 
sample at its original pitch. “Orig.Key” will increment
