Tour 5: Sampling - ESI ESI2000 Operation Manual

Tour 5:
Sampling
Sampling involves more than just sticking a microphone in front of
something—sampling is an art. This guided tour gives you the basics,
and also lays the groundwork for the guided tour of the Digital Process-
ing Module. In preparation for this guided tour, please read section 5,
Sample Management module.
Sampling
For this guided tour, simply connect a microphone (or another audio
source such as a CD player) directly to either the left or right sample
input.
1. Activate the Master/Globals module.
2. Select 3. Erase Bank. Answer Yes to the display's query. This
clears out the memory, which gives us maximum sampling time.
3. Activate the Sample Management Module, 5. Setup. The display
shows:

If you are sampling in mono, move the cursor to the input that you are
not using and turn it off with the On/Off buttons. Otherwise, leave both
channels on.
4. Use the right cursor/page button to view the next page of the
Setup section.

Check the available sampling time. This will vary depending on how
much memory you have in your ESI.

sampling. Set the source to either Analog 22050 Hz or Analog
44100 Hz.
