Manual Sampling
The
operational
flow
for
manual
sampling
is
the
same
as
in
auto-triggered
sampling—
(1
)
pressing
the
REC
key,
(2)
adjusting the recording
level.
Then,
as
first
mentioned
in this
chapter,
if
the trigger level
is
set
to
"100"
in
the
PROG. NO./DATA
display, the
SOI
will
be ready
for
manual
sampling.
*
In
case
the
trigger level
has been
set
to
"0",
the
S01
will
start
sampling as
soon as
the
bank
is
selected
(when
the
bank and
REC
keys
are simultaneously pressed).
Method:
1
Press
and
hold
down
the
REC
key, then press the desired
bank key
to
sample
in.
The
REC LED
will
continue
blinking, the
bank
LED
selected
will
light. If
the
bank
already contains a
sample,
it
will
be erased
when
the
bank
is
selected,
which
is
indicated
by
the flashing
of
the
PROG.
NO./
DATA
display.
2.
Press the
REC
key
to
start
sampling
or press
any key
other
than
the
REC
key
to
cancel
the
sampling.
3.
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.

Effective
Use
of
Manual Sampling
Sometimes
the
very
first
part
of a
sound
is
not recorded
completely
when
using
the auto-triggered
sampling method,
for
example
when
recording percussive instruments with
fast
attacks.
This tends
to
produce sounds
which
lack
intensity.
This
problem
is
easily
solved
by manual
sampling.
If
you
start
sampling
just
before the required source
sound
is
input,
you can
record
the
whole sound from
beginning
to end,
without
losing the attack sound.
Of
course
in this
case,
you
may
have
some
silence
at
the
beginning but
this
can be
removed
using
the discard function.
*
For
further
information
of "discarding",
see

An
optional foot
switch (normal-closed
type)
if
connected
to the foot
switch jack
on
the rear

stop
sampling by

PROG. NO./DATA
display

level.
If
the foot
switch
is

at this
point, the
sampler
will
go
to
Play
mode.

sampling,
4.
To
stop
sampling, depress
the foot
switch
again, the
