Sampling (Open Sampling System)
Sampling in Program, Combination, and Sequencer
modes
In addition to using Sampling mode, you can also
sample both external audio sources and internal
sounds in Program, Combination, and Sequencer
modes.
You can also resample the performance in each mode
while remaining in the internal digital domain. For
instance, you can resample a performance that uses the
M3's full range of features, including filters, effects,
and KARMA. You can even sample a full, multitimbral
sequence, played either from the internal sequencer or
an external MIDI sequencer.
You can also sample the M3's performance together
with audio from an external input source, or monitor
the performance of the M3's KARMA function and
sequencer etc. while you sample only the external
audio from the input jacks.
In Sequencer mode, you can also sample an audio
source that's being played along with the song, and the
system will automatically create MIDI notes to play the
new sample in sync with the song. You might use this
to record a vocal or guitar part, for instance.
This is called In-Track Sampling.
Resampling a phrase
generated by the KARMA

function

You can resample the sound of a program or
combination being played by yourself or by the
KARMA function.
In this example, we'll explain how to sample a
KARMA-generated phrase in Program mode. You can
sample in a similar way in Combination or Sequencer
modes as well.
1. Press the MODE PROG switch to enter Program
mode, and select the program that you want to
resample.
2. Turn on the KARMA function (KARMA ON/OFF
switch lit), play the keyboard, and verify that a
phrase is generated.
3. Access the P0: Play– Sampling/Audio In page.

4. If "Use Global Setting" is checked, executing the
menu command "Auto Sampling Setup" will edit
the Input settings of Global mode. If this is not
checked, the Input settings of each program will
be edited. Since this is easy to verify here, uncheck
this item.
5. Select the menu command "Auto Sampling
Setup" to access the dialog box.
The various sampling-related parameters will be set
automatically. You can use this as a guide when
resampling the performance of a Program,
Combination or Song, or when sampling an external
audio source. You can also use this to initialize the
settings.
6. Make the following settings.
Resample Program Play: On
Settings will be made for resampling the program's
performance.
Save to: RAM
The resampled data will be written to RAM memory.
Convert to Program: On
Program: as desired

Program.
7. Press the OK button to execute the command.
Preparations for resampling have now been made.
