Sampling and Sample Editing
Editing Samples
If the Of parameter is set to a value of 0, the Sample 2 segment will be mixed in on every beat,
regardless of the setting for the Beat parameter. If the Beat parameter is set to a negative value,
the segment of Sample 2 thatÕs mixed in will be moved forward in time by the length of one
beat each time itÕs mixed in; that is, youÕll hear a later portion of the sample. Another way to
accomplish this is to use the Increment (Incr) parameter on the Samp2 page. Set it to a positive
value to use a later portion of Sample 2 with each repetition, or a negative value to use an
earlier portion. The Beat parameter must be set to a value of 0 or higher for this to work.
For example, suppose youÕve chosen a six-second sample as Sample 1, and you use the entire
sample as the selected segment. You also select a half-second segment of Sample 2 to be mixed
in. If you choose a Tempo value of 120 beats per minute (2 beats per second), there will be 12
beats within your six-second Sample 1 segment. If you set the Beat parameter to 1 and the Of
parameter to 4, then Sample 2 will play on the Þrst, Þfth, and ninth beat of your six-second
Sample 1 segment. The result will look something like the diagram below.

If you change Beat to 3, Sample 2 will play on beats 3, 7, and 11. If you set Beat to 1 and Of to 6,
Sample 2 will play on beats 1 and 7. If you set Beat to -1, Sample 2 will still play on beats 1 and
7, but the sound of the sample will change each time, as the start point of the Sample 2 segment
moves forward (later) by one beat each time it is mixed in.

With the exception of two differences, the replicate function is similar to the Mix Beat function.
The primary difference is that the replicate function uses the selected Sample 2 segment to
overwrite (replace) the selected Sample 1 segment, instead of merging the two segments like
the Mix Beat function. This makes it run faster. The other difference is that there is a crossfade
parameter instead of a Volume Adjust parameter. The crossfade parameter lets you smooth the
transition points from Sample 1 to Sample 2.
