sound from before the moment you initiate sampling. By speeding up the response,
this allows the sharp attack at the beginning of a sound to be captured.
Sample for a pre-specified length of time
➜
Set the Stop Trigger and Beat or Time values
If you set the Stop Trigger parameter to "Beat" or "Time," sampling will stop
automatically after the specified time has elapsed.
The Beat or Time parameter specifies the length of time that will be sampled.
Automatically divide the sample at silent regions during sampling
➜
Use the Auto Divide parameter to specify the desired length of time.
When a silent region of the specified length is detected during sampling, the MV-8000
will automatically divide the sample. The divided samples are assigned within a single
bank.
1.
Access the SAMPLING screen as described in steps 1~5 of Using a
sampled sound as an audio phrase or patch (p. 38).
Before you start sampling, make sure that the Auto Divide parameter is On.
2.
Press (Start).
The Now Sampling... popup will appear, and sampling will begin.
3.
Press (Stop).
The QUICK ASSIGN (AUDIO PHRASE:DIVIDE)
screen (p. 361) or QUICK ASSIGN
(PATCH:DIVIDE) screen (p. 364) will appear. The
beginning of the divided samples will display and
the assigned pads will enclose with box.
4.
Specify the Assign To Pad Bank.
Select the pad bank to which you want to assign the
divided samples.
5. Press (Set All).
The samples will be assigned to the specified pad bank. Samples will be assigned in
order from pads 1 through 16 (in the example shown here, pad 1~5).
If data already exists for the pads of the bank that you specify for this assignment, pressing [F5
(Set All)] will overwrite the existing assignments. (This does not delete the samples themselves.)
Since you can audition the pads or use the Clipboard function (p. 54, p. 59) when making these
assignments, you can move the samples to a different bank or reassign them later as desired.
Making the volume of the samples consistent after recording
➜
Turn the Auto Normalize parameter On.
After sampling, the level will be normalized automatically.
Sampling
A maximum of sixteen
samples can be divided. If a
silent region is detected while
sampling the sixteenth sample,
sampling will stop
automatically.
The remaining time available
for sampling is shown in the
Remain field of the Sampling
screen.
The Normalize function raises
the level as far as possible
without exceeding the
maximum sample level.
You can use Auto Normalize
together with Auto Divide to
normalize each of the divided
samples.
