SAMPLES
PREVIEW (Sample Preview)
Press the PREVIEW button to go to the Sample Preview page. The Sample Preview page can
be used to automatically make a new keymap and Program using any sample or group of
sample roots (factory or user samples). Programs created with the preview function are saved
in Program Mode. This allows you to quickly hear what a sample or group of sample roots
will sound like in a Program. The preview function is also a quick way to begin making a
new Program which can be edited further if desired.
If a single sample is selected, a single keyrange keymap will be created. If a group of sample
roots is selected, the preview function will try to create a keymap with multiple key ranges
based on each sample's root key. If the sample or group of sample roots are stereo, the created
keymap will be stereo.
To use the preview function, go to the PREVIEW page, select a sample or group of sample
roots in the Sample field using the Alpha Wheel, -/+ buttons, or the alphanumeric pad, then
press the OK soft button. Next you will be brought to the "Fill from Id" page, where you
must select an ID to store the new keymap and program. The preview function will save the
created program and keymap using the selected ID, or the next higher numbered unused
ID. The preview function will never overwrite existing Programs or keymaps. Press the OK
soft button to choose the selected bank and create the new Program and keymap. The new
program will be selected in the currently selected channel in Program Mode.
JOIN (Create Multi-Samples)
Press the JOIN soft button to go to the Join Samples page, which can be used to combine
multiple User Sample roots into a single multi-sample object. This is useful for reducing the
number of User Sample objects in the system when using groups of many User Sample roots
for one instrument sound. Multi-sample objects contain multiple Sample roots, but use only
one object ID number.
On the Join Samples page, use the SELECT soft button to select samples to join from the
list, then press the OK soft button.
After joining Samples, you are presented with an option to automatically relink all Keymaps
which use the Samples, so that the Keymaps will use the new joined sample ID.
