The upper-left Input Source field defines whether you are going to record an external
audio signal, which you can set to the pair of inputs (Input 1,2) or a single input (Input 1–2).
You can also select an internal signal from within your Force hardware (Resample L,
Resample R, or Resample L+R).
Resampling does not require an audio connection because the source is internal and is
therefore recorded without any loss in audio quality. You can, for example, use Resample to
record two or more samples by pressing the corresponding pads simultaneously.
Use the second upper-left Mono/Stereo field to choose whether your recorded samples
will be monaural (Mono) or binaural (Stereo).
The Inserts field shows any enabled or disabled effects for the Sampler. Tap the area
under Inserts to open a window where you can load, change, and enable or disable the
effects.
Important: These effects are applied to the audio as you record it. This means that the
effects cannot be "removed" from the sound later. Learn more about how effects work in
General Features >
Effects.
Tap the Monitor button to enable or disable input monitoring. When on, the audio you hear
in your headphones will be taken before it reaches the Sampler, ensuring zero latency.
When off, the audio you hear in your headphones will be taken after it is processed in the
Sampler, so there may be some latency, but you will hear the audio source as it sounds in
the recording.
Tip: To avoid possible clicks or feedback while input monitoring, reduce the level of the
audio sources.
Use the threshold slider to adjust the threshold. Alternatively, turn Knob 1 when the
knobs are set to screen mode.
When the Sampler is record-armed, it automatically starts recording when the level of the
incoming source exceeds this setting. If you set it too high, the recording may not start
when you play the input source, or the start of the material you wanted to record may be
missing. If you set it too low, the recording may start too early, before you play the external
source. Set this parameter to an appropriate level using the level meter.
To reset the "peak hold," which shows the highest level of your input signal in the level
meter, tap it.
