Sampling P5: Audio Cd; 5-1: Ripping - Korg M3 Parameter Manual

Sampling P5: Audio CD

You can play back an audio CD in a CD-R/RW drive
connected to the USB A connector, or rip audio data from an
audio CD.
There are two ways to sample from an audio CD.
• If you want to monitor the audio, connect the audio
output jacks (or headphone jack) of your CD-R/RW
drive to the M3's AUDIO INPUT 1, 2 jacks.
Alternatively, you can monitor the audio by connecting
your CD-R/RW drive's S/P DIF OUT jack to the M3's
S/P DIF IN jack.
The sampling procedure is the same as when you're sam-
pling an analog audio source connected to the AUDIO
INPUT jacks in the conventional way. The sound will
play on the M3 according to the Input Analog (0–2a) set-
ting. Adjust the Input 1 (L channel) and Input 2 (R chan-
nel) settings for Level, Pan, and BUS (IFX/Indv.) Select
(normally set to L/R).
• The audio signal of the audio CD will be sampled
("ripped") as digital data. Use the menu command
Destination (5–1) to execute ripping.
Ripping is not supported for some CD-R/RW drives
(drives that do not support reading CD-DA data). In
this case, the message "Error in reading from medium"
will appear.
If your drive does not have audio output jacks, a
headphone jack, or an S/P DIF OUT jack, you won't be
able to monitor the audio.
The audio CD can be controlled by the SEQUENCER
switches.
