Sample Editing; Setting The End Point - Yamaha DJX Owner's Manual

SAMPLE EDITING

SAMPLE EDITING
The DJX also features some simple but powerful sample editing tools.
These include setting the end point for a sample, and creating sample
loops.

Setting the End Point

In this section, you'll learn how to set the end point of a recorded sample.
The end point determines how much of a sample is played back each time
you press a key. Three different resolutions — Coarse, Mid, and Fine — are
provided to let you move around within the sample data when searching
for the desired or best end point.
1 Enter the Sampling mode.
2 Call up the Sample Editing functions. (Press the FUNCTION button.)
3 Select the desired sample (wave). (Play any key in the sample's range.)
4 Set the sample for "one shot" play.
5 Adjust the end point. Use different editing resolutions if necessary.
6 Exit from the Sampling mode.

DIGITAL SAMPLING
Keep in mind that setting
the end point to a position
earlier than the actual end
of the sample does not
change the actual length of
the sample or delete any of
the sample's data — it
simply changes how the
sample plays back.
The Sample Editing
functions cannot be selected
if samples have not yet
been recorded. (The error
message "No Data"
appears in the display.)
