Kurzweil K2500 - PERFORMANCE GUIDE REV F PART NUMBER 910251 CHAP 15 Sampling Manual page 15

Miscellaneous (MISC)
On the MISC page, you'll set several parameters that affect the behavior of the current sample.
These parameters affect the entire sample. The diagram of the MISC page shows a ROM
sample, and since the DSP functions cannot be applied to ROM samples, the DSP soft button is
not available. In its place is the Link soft button, which enables you to maintain equal times
between various points in the sample—Start and Alt, for example.
The default values shown in this diagram reflect the settings for the Default program 199.

Root Key Number
The root key number represents the key at which the sample will play back without
transposition (at the same pitch as the pitch of the original sample). When you're creating your
own samples, the key you strike as the root key will be the key you see as the value for this
parameter.
Pitch Adjust
Use this parameter to change the pitch of the sample relative to the key from which it's played.
Setting a value of 100 cts, for example, will cause the sample to play back one semitone higher
than normal. This parameter is handy for fine tuning samples to each other if they're slightly
out of tune.
Volume Adjust
Uniformly boost or cut the amplitude of the entire sample. Compare this to the DSP Volume
Adjust parameter, which lets you boost or cut the amplitude of a specified segment of a RAM
sample.
