The "DUPLICATE&ADD" option duplicates the sample
and adds it to the specified sample bank. (The name for
each new sample becomes: original name + "*".)
• Note that the A5000/A4000 does not create another
copy of the waveform data when "duplicating" the
sample. Instead, both samples access the same
waveform memory area. This means that the dupli-
cation does not consume any additional waveform
memory.
