Sampling (Open Sampling System)
2. Go to the P2: Loop Edit page. Select the page menu
command "Time Slice."
The Set Sample Tempo dialog box will appear.
3. Specify the number of quarter-note beats in the
sample, and its tempo.
If you know the tempo in BPM, set the Source BPM
accordingly.
If you do not know the BPM, use Beat to enter the total
number of beats, and the BPM will be calculated
automatically.
4. Press the OK button.
The sample will automatically be sliced, and a dialog box
will appear.
When you play the keyboard, C2 will play the original
sample (Source), and D2 and subsequent keys will play
the divided samples.
While listening to each divided sample, adjust Sensitivity
so that each drum strike or other rhythm instrument sound
is divided into its own sample. In some cases, it may not
be possible to slice the sample cleanly even if you adjust
Sensitivity. If the attack of the next sound is included in
the end of the preceding sample, or if one sample
contains two notes, you will need to edit the samples.
If you want to edit, hold down the ENTER switch and
select the Index that is assigned to the note that you want
to edit. (This portion of the waveform display will be
highlighted.) Then you can make adjustments by
adjusting Start or End, and by using Divide to separate
or Link to combine.
For more information, see "Time Slice" on page 742 of
the Parameter Guide.
5. Press the Save button.
The Save Samples & MS dialog box will appear.
Here you can save the time-sliced samples and the
multisample.
At this time, set the items in the Save With area to specify
the conversion destination for the program that will use
the samples and multisample, and for the performance
data (track or pattern) that will be used in Sequencer
mode to "recreate" the rhythm loop sample.
• If you want to create the performance data in a track:
Turn Program and Seq.Event On (checked)
150
Program: as desired (for instance, U-G000)
Track: On
Song: 000, Track: 01, Meter: 4/4
Start Measure: 001, Time: 008
Press the Save button to save the data.
You will return to the dialog box of step 4.
• If you want to create the performance data in a pattern:
In order to audition the performance data as it would be if
created as a pattern, press the Save button once again to
go to the Save Samples & MS dialog box.
Turn Program and Seq.Event On (checked)
Program: as desired (for instance, U-G001)
Pattern: On
Song: 001, Pattern: U00, Meter: 4/4
RPPR: On (checked), Key: C#2, Track: 01
Press the Save button to save the data.
You will return to the dialog box of step 4.
6. Press the Exit button.
