* You can also use the Time Stretch command to control the compression of
each sample to optimize the "spacing" to match the tempo.

to Time Slice.

3 Specifies the number of quarter-note beats and tempo of
the currently selected sample. If you know the BPM of
the original waveform, set "Source BPM." If you do not
know the BPM, specify "Beat" and the BPM will be calcu-
lated automatically. The setting you make here will be
used as the reference value when detecting the attack,
when performing Time Stretch in step 9 b, and when
saving the pattern data in step 0 .
Beat: Specify the number of quarter-note beats. When
you specify "Beat," the "Source BPM" will indicate the
playback BPM at the original key. This BPM value will
automatically be calculated from the start address to the
end address (if loop is off) or from the loop start address
to the end address (if loop is on) of the selected sample. If

you know the BPM and it is different than the displayed
value, change "Source BPM" to the correct value.
For example in the case of a 120 BPM sample of one mea-
sure of 4/4 time, set "Beat" to 4. The "Source BPM" will
be calculated automatically. If the "Source BPM" is not
set to 120, due to inaccuracies in the start address (or loop
start address) and end address, change the "Source BPM"
to 120.
Source BPM: Specifies the tempo at the original key of
the source waveform.
4 To execute Time Slice, press the [F8] ("OK") key. To can-
cel without executing, press the [F7] ("Cancel") key.
When you press the [F8] ("OK") key, the attacks will be
detected, the sample will automatically be sliced, and a
dialog box will appear.
In the case of a stereo sample in which L and R
have different lengths, silent data will automatically be
added to the end of the shorter sample so that the two
samples will be the same length.
If you want to reset "Beat" and "Source BPM" after
pressing the [F8] ("OK") key, you can do so in step 9 a.
5 Listen to the samples that were divided by detecting
their attacks. The sample before slicing is assigned to the
C2 note of the keyboard, and the sliced samples are
assigned to notes D2 and above. When you change the
"Index," the corresponding display will be highlighted,
allowing you to view the sliced waveforms.
To select an index, hold down the [ENTER] key and
play a note on the keyboard of a connected MIDI instru-
ment. The index that includes the note you played will
be selected.
To hear the sliced sounds, you can either press the cor-
responding note on the keyboard of a connected MIDI
instrument, or change the index to select the desired
sample and then press the [AUDITION] key. When you
press the [AUDITION] key, the sample in the range
between the specified "S (Start)" and "E (End)" will be
played at the original key.
Index
[Source(C2), xxx: 001...090(zzz: D2...G9)/yyy: 001...090]:
Select the sample index.
If this is set to Source, the original waveform before time
slicing will be selected.
By selecting xxx(zzz)/yyy you can specify individual
samples that were sliced. xxx indicates the selected sam-
ple, and yyy indicates the total number of samples that
were sliced. zzz indicates the number of notes that are
