Sampling In Sequencer Mode; In-Track Sampling - Korg kronos Operation Manual

Sampling in Sequencer mode

In Sequencer mode, you can sample just like in Program and
Combination modes, but there's an additional option unique
to Sequencer mode: In-Track Sampling.

In-Track Sampling

In this example, we'll show the sound of a guitar connected
to the AUDIO INPUT 1 jack can be added to your song.
1. In Sequencer mode, select the song to which you want
to add the guitar sound.
You can either create a song, or use Disk mode to load a
previously-created song.
2. Connect your guitar to the rear panel AUDIO INPUT
1 jack.
Press the AUDIO INPUT MIC/LINE switch inward to
select the LINE position, and set the LEVEL knob at
about the center.
If you connect a guitar with passive pickups (i.e., a guitar
that does not contain a preamp), you will be unable to
sample it at the correct level because of the impedance
mismatch. Such guitars should be routed through a
preamp or an effect unit.
3. Go to the Sequencer P0: Play/REC– Audio
Input/Sampling page.
4. We will be modifying the Audio Input settings, so turn
the Input "Use Global Setting" off.
5. Choose the Auto HDR/Sampling Setup page menu
command.
The dialog box will appear.
6. Choose "In-Track Sampling."
Sampling in Sequencer mode In-Track Sampling
In-Track Sampling lets you sample an audio source that's
being played along with the song. During the sampling
process, the system will automatically create a Program to
hold the new sample, and MIDI notes to play it in sync with
the song. You might use this to record a vocal or guitar part,
for instance.
7. Make the following settings for "In-Track Sampling."
Source Audio: Audio Input 1/2
The input from the AUDIO INPUT 1 and 2 jacks will be
sampled.
Mono–L/Mono–R/Stereo: Mono-L
The sound will be sampled in mono.
To: as desired
The track you want to use for In-Track Sampling. MIDI
note data to trigger the sample will be recorded in the
track you selected.
Program: as desired
The convert-destination program number. When
sampling is completed, a new multisample will be
automatically created, converted to a program, and
assigned as the program for the track.
8. Press the OK button to execute the command.
Preparations for In-Track Sampling are now completed.
