Sampling
[Checking Input Level]
As you
feed
an
audio
signal, set the level as
high
as possible
without
causing
the Display
to
show "OVER",
using the Recording Level
Knob
on
the front panel.
The
audio
signal fed into the
S
—
330
is
sent
through
the Individual
Out
1
and Output Phone
Jacks,
and
therefore
can be monitored through
the
connected
amplifcr.
*When
sampling
from
a
microphone, you
may
hear
a
howling noise.
If
so,
turn
down
the
volume
of
the
amplifier
and monitor through headphones.
[Setting
Parameters
for
Sampling]
Frequency (Sampling Frequency)
This
selects
the sampling frequency.
[30]
This records
a
sound with
30kHz
sampling
frequency.
[15]
This
records a
sound with
15kHz
sampling frequency.
Time (Sampling Time)
This
sets the
sampling time
(0.4
sec
steps).
You
can
select
up
to
the
maximum
sampling
time.
When
15kHz sampling
frequency
is
selected,
please multiply the
sampling time by
2.
If
the
maximum
sampling lime
is
longer than
that of the sample, select
a longer
sampling
time, so that
sampling
can be
more
successful.
You
can
truncate the
wave
later in
the Utility
mode [TRUNCATE].
Orig.
Key

The
Original

represents the
key
at
which
the original
sample
was
played.
When
sampling from
a
musical instrument,
you
may
have
to set
a
Key
number
that
matches
the pitch of
the
sampled
sound. Middle
C
is
shown
as the
C4
key, and
a
semi
—
tone as
#.
A
Key number
can also be entered
by
assigning the
corresponding MIDI
Note
number
with the
Ten

Pad on
thr
RC-100.
C4
=
Nolc

is
2 octaves
above
the
sampled
sound. Higher pitches
