Editing a Sample
 
You can specify the portion of the sample that will actually sound. 
You can also specify the region that is to be looped.
 
1.
 
Press [SAMPLE LIST] and select the sample that you want 
to edit (p. 146).
 
2.
 
Press [SAMPLE EDIT].

3.
 
Use 
 or 
 to select the point that you want to set.
 
 
Start Point:
 
 
This is the point at which playback will start. Set this so that any 
unwanted portion at the beginning of the sample will be 
skipped, and the sound will begin at the desired moment.
 
Loop Start:
 
 
This is the point at which loop playback (second and 
subsequent times) will start. Set this if you want to loop the 
sound from a point other than the start point.
 
End Point:
 
 
This is the point at which playback will end. Set this so that any 
unwanted portion at the end of the sample will not be heard.
 
By pressing [F8 (Preview)] you can audition the region between 
the start point and edit point.
 
If you hold down [F8 (Preview)] and edit the start/loop/end 
point, the sample will play repeatedly across that point. Since 
the sound in the region you’re specifying will play repeatedly, 
this is a convenient way to check your setting.
(Zooming-in or zooming-out on the waveform will change the 
region that loops.)
 
4.
 
Either turn the VALUE dial or use [INC], [DEC] to move the 
point so it’s where you want it to be.
 
You’ll probably find it convenient to zoom-in when making fine 
adjustments, and zoom-out when making major adjustments (p. 
148).
You can move the point in units of one beat by pressing [F4 (
 
 
)] 
or [F5 (
 
 
)]. 
 
The preset samples cannot be moved by beat.
 
After specifying the start point and end point, you can execute 
Truncate (p. 155) to delete unwanted portions at the beginning 
and end of the sample.
 
Sample modify operations (Chop, Normalize, etc.) apply to the 
entire sample. Even if you specify a start point or end point, 
they will be ignored. If you want to apply the operation only to 
the region between the start point and end point, use Truncate 
to delete unwanted portions of the sample, and then perform 
the sample modifying operation.
You can use the knobs to edit each point. Using the knobs is 
convenient when you need to make large changes to the value.
 
1.
 
Make sure that the button indicators located at the right of 
the REALTIME CONTROL knobs are extinguished.
 
If they are lit, press the button so the indicators go out.
 
2.
 
Use the REALTIME CONTROL knobs to specify the 
following editing points.
 
From the left, the knobs have the following functions.

About the beat
Samples contain beat data. Up to 100 beat locations are specified 
for one sample. If the sample contains more than 100 beats, fifty 
beat locations will be specified from the beginning and end of 
the sample, respectively. 
*
The preset samples do not contain beat data.
When you want to reset the beat indication 
(Reset Grid function)
You can reassign the sample grid according to the specified 
start point and BPM. In the Sample Edit screen, specify the start 
point of the sample and press [F2 (Sample Param)] to access the 
Sample Prm screen. In the Sample Prm screen, specify the BPM 
and press [F7 (Reset Grid)]. To execute, press [F8 (Exec)].
