Sampling Sounds And Playing Them On The Digital Keyboard; Connection And Preparation - Casio CTK-4400 User Manual

Sampling Sounds and Playing Them on the Digital
Keyboard
You can sample a sound from a microphone, a portable audio
player, or other device, and then play the sound on the
keyboard. For example, you could sample the bark of your
dog and then use the sound in a melody. You also can sample
and use passages from a CD. The sampling feature is a great
way to create new sounds that are highly creative.
