Sample
Activates the program which is able
Translator
to read samples from previous
Generalmusic Series instruments (S,
WX, SX) and disk-based samples of
various formats. Sample Translator
also permits the reception and trans-
mission of samples via Midi and the
creation of new Waveforms. Sam-
ple Translator is discussed sepa-
rately on page 40.
Algorithm
Allows you to choose one of the 5
Algorithms available.
Layer Utility
Allows you to Create, Import or De-
lete layers as required.
Layer Range
Allows you to assign a keyboard
range and a dynamic range to the
currently selected Layer.
Abort

Save
Allows you to save your modified
Sound to the SK760/880 Sound Li-
brary (RAM) and escapes from Edit
Sound definitely.

This option, which appears in all Edit
pages, temporarily assigns the origi-
nal parameter status of the current
edit page to the Sound in edit to com-
pare the Sound before and after the
