will be selected. An " " symbol is shown to the left of the first
multisample.
Reverse
This plays the selected multisample in reverse without looping it.
Note: If an individual sample within the multisample is already set
to reverse, it will play in reverse without this setting.
On (checked): The multisample will play in reverse.
Off (unchecked): The multisample will play normally.
For some multisamples, this setting is not available.
Offset (Start Offset)
In addition to simply starting playback from the beginning,
Multisamples can have up to 4 different pre-programmed alternate
starting points.
The Start Offset option specifies whether to use the normal start
point (Off), or to use one of the alternate start points (1st–4th).
Some Multisamples may have fewer than 4 pre-programmed
points, in which case only the available points can be selected.
Level
This sets the basic volume level of the multisample. The Amp
section can modify this basic level extensively with envelopes,
LFOs, keyboard tracking, and other modulation; for more
information, please see "8: P–Amp" on page 32.
Depending on the multisample, high Level settings may
cause distortion when playing many notes at a time. If this
occurs, lower the Level.
Bottom Vel. (Bottom Velocity)
This sets the lowest velocity where the Multisample will sound.
Multisample1's Bottom Vel. can be equal to, but not lower than,
that of Multisample2.
Xfade (Crossfade Range)
This sets the range of velocities where Multisample1 will fade into
Multisample2, going up from the Bottom Vel..
For instance, if the Bottom Vel. is set to 64, and the Xade is set to
20, MS2 will start to fade in at velocities of 84 and below.
When velocities are within the Xfade, the Oscillator will use twice
as much polyphony as it would normally.
Note: You can only fade between two zones at once.
This shows the velocity zone.
Xfade Range = 20
Curve = Linear
Bottom Velocity = 64
Curve
This controls the volume curve of the crossfade. Linear and
Power (short for Equal Power) let you fine-tune the way that the
two Multisamples mix together; one or the other may be more
appropriate for a given pair of Multisamples. Layer, true to its
name, lets you layer the two Multisamples together without any
crossfading.

[Linear, Power, Layer]
Linear means that the two samples will each be at 50% of their
full volume in the middle of the crossfade. Sometimes, this may
create a dip in the volume level; if so, try using Power instead.
Power, short for Equal Power, means that the two samples will
each be at around 70% of their full volume in the middle of the
crossfade. Sometimes, this may create a bump in the volume level,
in which case you might try selecting Linear instead.
Layer means that the two Multisamples will be layered together,
both at full volume, for the entire range of the crossfade.

Velocity Split
This shows the velocity zones for the oscillator's four
multisamples and for each oscillator.
The meter on the left indicates the note-on velocity. This allows
you to verify the multisamples that will sound at each velocity.
Oscillator Mode Drums
This parameter appears when the Oscillator Mode is set to Drums
or Double Drums.
