Using The Freeze Effect - Yamaha DSP5D Owner's Manual

Using the Freeze effect

Here's how to use the "FREEZE" effect type, which provides the functionality of a simple sampler. When this effect type is
selected, you can perform operations in the screen to record (sample) and play back a sound.
1 In the EFFECT LIBRARY screen, recall a library
item that uses the FREEZE effect type.
2 In the DISPLAY ACCESS section, repeatedly
press the [EFFECT] key to access the EFFECT
PARAM screen.
If the FREEZE effect type is selected, the lower left of
the EFFECT PARAM screen will show a REC button, a
PLAY button, and a progress bar.

3 To begin recording (sampling), click the REC
button and then click the PLAY button.
The signal being input to the effect will be recorded.
The progress bar shows the current recording location.
When a fixed time has elapsed, the buttons will auto-
matically turn off.
Hint
You can adjust the parameters in the screen to make detailed
settings for recording time, the way in which recording will
begin, and the way in which the sample will play back. For
more about the parameters, refer to the Appendices at the
end of this manual ( ➥ p.332).
4 To play back the recorded sample, click the
PLAY button.
Note
Once you stop, the sampled content will be erased.
