Sampling (Open Sampling System)
2. Go to the P2: Loop Edit page. Select the page menu
command "Time Slice."
The Set Sample Tempo dialog box will appear.
3. Specify the number of quarter‐note beats in the
sample, and its tempo.
If you know the tempo in BPM, set the Source BPM
accordingly.
If you do not know the BPM, use Beat to enter the
total number of beats, and the BPM will be
calculated automatically.
4. Press the OK button.
The sample will automatically be sliced, and a
dialog box will appear.
When you play the keyboard, C2 will play the
original sample (Source), and D2 and subsequent
keys will play the divided samples.
While listening to each divided sample, adjust
Sensitivity so that each drum strike or other rhythm
instrument sound is divided into its own sample. In
some cases, it may not be possible to slice the
sample cleanly even if you adjust Sensitivity. If the
attack of the next sound is included in the end of the
preceding sample, or if one sample contains two
notes, you will need to edit the samples.
If you want to edit, hold down the ENTER switch
and select the Index that is assigned to the note that
you want to edit. (This portion of the waveform
display will be highlighted.) Then you can make
adjustments by adjusting Start or End, and by using
Divide to separate or Link to combine.
For more information, see "Time Slice" on page 740
of the Parameter Guide.
5. Press the Save button.
The Save Samples & MS dialog box will appear.
Here you can save the time‐sliced samples and the
multisample.
At this time, set the items in the Save With area to
specify the conversion destination for the program
that will use the samples and multisample, and for
the performance data (track or pattern) that will be
used in Sequencer mode to "recreate" the rhythm
loop sample.
