Boosting or Limiting the
High-frequency Range of
the Sample (Emphasis)
In some cases, the audio quality will be improved if you boost the
high-frequency range of an imported sample. Also, the high-
frequency range of the sample may be emphasized when you use a
sampler made by another manufacturer. In this case, you can
minimize the change in tonal character by attenuating the high-
frequency range.
* You cannot execute this with more than one sample selected.

Maximizing the Volume of a
Sample (Normalize)
This operation raises the level of the entire sample as much as
possible without exceeding the maximum level. In some cases, the
volume of a phrase you resampled (p. 117) will be lower than the
volume of the original phrase. In this case, it is a good idea to boost
the volume by executing the Normalize operation.
