Remaining
Memory
Indication
In
Play
mode,
if
either
of
the cursor
keys
is
pressed, the
PROG.NO./DATA
display
will
show
the
remaining
memory
(i.e.
remaining sampling
time)
in
seconds.
It is
useful
to
check
how
long
you
can
sample.
For example,
in
case
you have
not yet
used
the
memory,
as
seen
in
the
diagram, "15.6"
will
be shown.
Also,
if
you have used up
the
memory,
"FUL
" will
be shown.
DO
P
Erasing
Samples
As
mentioned
before
in
sampling methods, each sample contained
in
a
bank
can
easily
be
erased.
This
can be
applied
when
deleting
an
unnecessary
sample by
selecting
its
bank.
Methods:
1
Set the
trigger level
at
"100"
using the data entry knob.
2.
Press
and hold
down
the
REC
key,
then
press the desired
bank
key, the
PROG. NO./DATA
display
will flash
once,
and
the
sample
will
be
erased.
3.
Press
any key
other than the
REC
key,
and
the
SOI
will
go
to
Play
mode.
Multi-sampling
When
playing
sampled sounds
with a
MIDI
keyboard,
if
playing
them
in
a
much
higher
or
lower key
range
that
is
far
away
from
C3
key
(original pitch), the
sound
will
be extremely
strange or unnatural.
This
problem
is
solved
by making
several
samples
of
different
pitches
(lower
to
higher) out of the
same
sound
source (multi-sampling)
and
assigning
them
with
their
respective appropriate
key
ranges.
If
that
multi-sampled
program
is
played,
the
reproduction
will
be
more
natural
in
a
wider key
range.
The
SOI
enables
you
to
make
an
8 point
multi-sampled
program
utilizing
8
banks
by
assigning
each
bank
with
the
same program number
and
MIDI
channel, plus
an
individual
key
range
and
transposition.
The
supplied operation guide disk includes a
multi-sampled
program
prepared.
See page 48
for
details.
