Press a bank button to specify the bank into which you
want to sample. When you press a bank button, the
pads within that bank to which you can sample (i.e.,
pads that do not contain a sample) will blink.

[LO-FI] unlit:
STANDARD (high quality)
[LO-FI] lit:
LO-FI (low fidelity)
LO-FI provides the distinctive low-fidelity sound that is typical of
early digital devices. If you select LO-FI, you won’t be able to
monitor the sampled result during sampling. When sampling is
finished, you can press the pad to play back the sample for
auditioning. Once you record a sample using LO-FI, you can’t
regain the original sound quality, even if you resample it using
STANDARD.

Since the BPM value that is displayed after sampling is an
estimated value that is calculated from the sampled time, it
may not be accurate. This means that even if two samples
have the same BPM value, they may drift apart in timing if they
are played as continuous loops for an extended time.

The Auto Sampling function will cause sampling to begin
automatically when the input signal (sound) exceeds a
specified level. This is convenient when you want to begin
sampling from the introduction of a song. Before you enter
sampling standby mode, adjust the sampling trigger level as
described below.
