Sampling P1: Sample Edit; 1-1: Sample Edit - Korg M3 Parameter Manual

Sampling P1: Sample Edit

In this page you can edit sample data (waveform data). You
can make detailed edits while watching the sample
waveform display. Here are the main operations you will
perform in this page.
• Truncate (delete unwanted regions), copy, paste, move,
normalize (boost the level as high as possible without
distortion), rate convert (lower the sampling frequency),
reverse (backward playback), and link (connect two
samples)
• When performing the above operations, you can
automatically detect zero-crossing points, or display a
grid (vertical lines) and edit according to BPM values or
beats

1–1a: Multisample Select (MS)
Multisample Select
Selects the multisample that contains the sample you wish
to edit.
Keyboard & Index
For more information, please see "0–1a: Multisample Select
(MS)" on page 301.
Index [xxx (001...128)/yyy (001...128)]
Selects the index of the sample you wish to edit. Your
editing will affect the sample of the index that you select
here, and the waveform will appear in the "Sample
waveform display" (0–1a).
Note: An index can also be selected by holding down the
ENTER switch and playing a note on the keyboard or pad.
The index that includes this note will be selected. The key
you played will be the base key, and will be displayed in
blue in "Keyboard & Index" (0–1a).
1–1b: Sample Select, Range
Sample Select [----: ---No Assign----, 0000...3999]
Range
This shows the sample number and name for the selected
index, and the range. If you modify Sample Select, the
sample you specify here will be assigned to this index. The
range of the index is shown at the right.

1–1c: Sample waveform display
Sample waveform display
This displays the waveform of the selected sample. The
horizontal axis is the sample address (time axis), and the
vertical axis is the sample level.
b
In the following diagram, "a" indicates the portion of the
entire sample that is shown in "b". As you zoom-in on the
time axis, this shows you where the magnified portion lies
within the overall sample. You can use the ZOOM buttons to
magnify (zoom-in) or shrink (zoom-out) the portion shown
in the "b" waveform display.
If you have selected a stereo multisample or sample, the L
channel and R channel of the sample data will be shown
above and below.
1–1d: Edit Range
Edit Range Start
Edit Range End
This specifies the range (start address and end address) of
the sample that will be edited by menu commands. (This is
shown in sample address units.)
The range you specify here will be highlighted in the
"Sample waveform display."
To audition the selected range, press the SAMPLING
START/STOP switch or Play button. The sample in the area
between Edit Range Start and Edit Range End will sound at
the pitch of the currently selected key (displayed in blue)
(Keyboard & Index 0–1a).
Use Zero
On (checked): When setting Edit Range Start and Edit
Range End, it will be possible to select these only to
locations where the waveform level is ±0 (i.e., where the
waveform crosses the center line of the "Sample waveform
display"). You can use the VALUE slider, VALUE dial, and
q/u switches to automatically search for zero-cross
addresses. By using the numeric keys 0–9 you can search for
the zero-cross address nearest to the value that you input.
Off (unchecked): Edit Range Start and Edit Range End can
be set in increments of one. This is the normal setting.
Grid
This specifies the spacing of the grid. The grid is determined
by the BPM value you specify here and the Resolution
setting of the menu command Grid. For more information,
please see "Grid" on page 342.
Tip: If you don't know the tempo of the sample, set the
tempo by pressing the TAP TEMPO switch several times in
rhythm with the playback.
