pitch for each index. Here are the main operations you will
perform in this page.
• Create and edit multisamples and indexes
• Edit the playback level and pitch of samples
• Delete, copy, and paste indexes

3–1b: Multisample Setup
Index [xxx (001...128)/yyy (001...128)]
Selects the index (the sample key zone within the
Multisample) that you wish to edit. (0–1a)
You can also select an index 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 selected
key will be the base key, and will be displayed in blue in
"Keyboard & Index."
Constant Pitch
On (checked): All notes in the zone of the index will sound
at the pitch of the original key. Use this setting when you
have sampled a drum sound or a rhythm loop, and want it
to always playback at the original pitch.
Off (unchecked): The pitch will change in semitone steps,
based on the original key. Use this setting when you have
sampled a musical instrument sound etc. and would like to
play it conventionally from the keyboard.
Sample (Sample Select)
[----: ---No Assign----, 0000...3999]
This indicates the number and name of the sample that is
assigned to the selected index. You can also select the
sample here. (0–1b)

Stereo
This area will indicate "Stereo" if a stereo multisample or
sample is selected, or if you sampled with a setting of Stereo
in Sample Mode (0–1d).
Orig.Key (Original Key)
Specifies the original key of the sample (0–1b).
Top Key
Specifies the highest key in the zone of the index. The zone
is defined by this Top Key (0–1b).
Range
This shows the range of the zone that is determined by the
3–1
Top Key setting. The selected sample data will playback
Menu
within this area. Zone settings for an index can also be
viewed in Keyboard & Index (0–1a).
Level
Adjusts the playback level of the sample. Use this when you
need to adjust the level balance between samples within a
multisample.
0: Unity level
–: The level will be lowered.
+: The level will be raised.
Since in Sampling mode the playback unity level will
normally be the maximum level, adjustments in the +
direction will have no effect. If Volume (CC#07) or
Expression (CC#11) has been assigned to the
ASSIGNABLE PEDAL or as the slider and these
[000...999]
controllers have been operated, or if these MIDI
messages have been received to lower the playback
unity level, then adjustments in the + direction will be
valid. (See page 113, Sample Parameters: Level)
Note: The playback level will also be affected by the +12 dB
(2–1d) setting. If +12 dB is on, the sample will play back
approximately +12 dB louder.
Pitch (BPM Adjust In Menu)
Adjusts the playback pitch of the sample in one-cent steps.
0: The sample will sound at the original pitch when the
original key is played.
–: The pitch will be lowered. At a setting of –12.00 the pitch
will be one octave lower.
+: The pitch will be raised. At a setting of +12.00 the pitch
will be one octave higher.
You can also use Pitch to make fine adjustments in the
length of a rhythm loop. For example with a setting of
+12.00, the playback speed will be doubled, and the loop
playback time will be 1/2. (See page 113, Sample
Parameters: Pitch)
Note: The Pitch BPM Adjust menu command lets you set
the playback time in terms of a BPM value.
Insert
This creates an index. When you press the Insert button, a
new index will be created according to the Position setting
(0–3a, 3–2a). At this time, the contents of the index that was
cut or copied by Cut or Copy (i.e., the Zone Range, Original
Key Position, Level and Pitch) will be assigned at the same
time. (The sample will automatically be copied or assigned
to a different number.)
If it is not possible to create a new index when you
execute Create or Insert, a dialog box will appear. If this
occurs, please see Create (0–1b).
