BASIC OPERATIONS (CONT.)
Changing the Sample Parameters:
Changing the sample parameters allows you to change the sample's volume and pitch. The param-
eters values for both the pitch and volume settings range from 00:00 to 20:00, 00:00 being the lowest
value. A higher value will increase the pitch percentage or volume. It's important to understand that the
pitch value is basically a speed adjustment and has nothing to do with tonal quality. The values can be
either a momentary change or set adjustment. The sample values are changed in three easy steps,
while in sample playback mode:
Changing the Sample Parameters - Speed

percentage (speed) of the sample. +0 00 is your default setting - Normal
playback. Any adjustments will be based on this default setting. Turning the
knob in a clockwise direction will increase your pitch. Turning the wheel in
a counter-clockwise direction will decrease the parameters value.
