F5 CUT
This option allows you to trim the
Sample at a specified Loop End in
order to "cut off" the last portion of
the Sample. If you vary the current
setting of the Loop End and wish to
eliminate the portion of the sample
that follows, press F5 to trigger the
CUT option. After using CUT, you'll
find that the Loop End point cannot
be taken to a higher value.
The SAVE operation is used to save assigned Samples to the Genesys xp. A Waveform can contain one or more assigned
samples, provided that each is assigned to a specific keyboard range. Once your samples have been assigned, press the
SAVE button, (F2), to save the Waveform to the Genesys xp Wave Library. The Save Sample dialog window appears.
Here you can write a name for the waveform (Wave name) and a name for the new RAM - Sound (Sound name) based on
the Waveform. The name given to the Waveform is automatically assigned to the sound once you select the Sound Name
entry zone. You are free, however, to write a different name for the Sound. Also shown is the first available empty location in
RAM for the new RAM -Sound, defined by the Bank and Program numbers. Whatever Bank and Program number you select
with the Dial, it will always correspond to an empty location in RAM.
Genesys xp does not allow you to overwrite existing Ram-Sounds or RAM -Sounds. If you attempt to save the Waveform
with a name that already exists, a message appears saying that the Wave Name already exists. Press Enter or Escape to
cancel the message and return to the Save Sample window and write a different name for the Wave. Confirm with ENTER
to save the Waveform to the Genesys Wave Library. The new Ram-Sound is simultaneously saved to the Sound Library at
the selected location. Pressing Enter also escapes the Sample Translator and returns to Edit Sound where you can start
editing the new Ram-Sound with the procedures described above.You will find the new Ram-Sound assigned to the currently
selected track, and the new Waveform selected in the Waveform editor.

Storing Samples

The Tuning option provides a reference for the sample pitch, producing the
exact note with a sinusoidal, superimposed on the sample. This is useful
in situations where the original sample pitch is required when assigning
a sample to a key range. Press the soft button F1 to activate the Tuning
function (shown in negative highlight) and play a note on the keyboard.
Press F1 to deactivate Tuning.
If the volume of the selected sample seems to be too low, it is quite probable
that the original sample Gain (Volume) has a setting that needs to be
adjusted. Normalize takes the sample gain to its maximum setting in a
single step.
This option allows you to modify the volume of the sample with respect to
the other samples of the Waveform. One of the primary uses of Gain is to
equalize the volume levels between different key ranges.
