The
trigger level
determines
the
start
point
of
the
sample (from where
the
sample
is
reproduced),
so
that
it
should be
set
"higher" than
the noise
level
but
"low"
enough
to
sample
the
whole sound
from
the source, as
seen
in
the
diagram
below.
Remember,
especially
when
using a
microphone,
it
is
easy
to
pick
up
background
noise
and
difficult
for
you
to
keep
the constant input
level.
Please
remember
this
when
setting the
level.

How
to Start
and Stop Sampling
The
SOI
automatically
starts
sampling
when
the input
level
is
over
the trigger level
and
the
REC
LED
changes
to
remain
lit.
To
stop
sampling, press
any key
in
the operation panel, the
REC LED
will
go
out
to indicate that
sampling
is
stopped,
and
the
SOI
will
go
to
Play
mode.
Check
the
sound
just
sampled by
pressing
the
bank
key.
If
you
resample
the
sound,
try
it
again.
Consecutive sampling can be
done by
repeating
"7.
Selecting a
Bank" and
later.
*
If
the available
user
memory
is
used up
during sampling, the
PROG.NO./DATA
display
will
show
"FUL"
for
a few
seconds,
and
the
sampling
will
finish
at that point.
Remember
that
the
initially
available
sampling
time
is
15.6
seconds.
*
In
case
the
trigger level
is
set
too high
and
auto-triggered
sampling cannot be performed, you can
press
the
REC
key
to start
sampling
at that point,
or
press
any key
other than the
REC
key
to
cancel
the
sampling.
