BANK CHG (Bank Change) ..............................................[TO A...H, TO ROM]
Here's how to change banks.
When the bank change has been completed, the display will indicate "COM-
PLETE," and will then return to the screen that had been shown prior to the
bank change.
Do not use the microSAMPLER's knobs, buttons, keyboard or turn off the
keyboard while the bank is being switched.
If you've edited the contents of a bank, your changes will be lost if you turn
off the power or switch to a different bank before saving the bank. If you
want to keep the changes you made, you must write them (☞p.41 "Saving
(writing)").
BANK.NAME (Bank Name)
You can specify a name for each bank.
In step 4 of the basic procedure, use the [PARAMETER/FX CONTROL 1]
knob to select the character that you want to change, and use the [VALUE/
FX CONTROL 2] knob to choose the desired character.
BPM ........................................................................................... [20.0...300.0]
This specifies the tempo.
You can also set this by using the tap tempo function (☞p.18 "Using the Tap
Tempo function").
AUDIO IN FX SW ............................................................................. [OFF, ON]
This specifies whether the effect will be applied to the sound from AUDIO
IN.
OFF
The effect will not be applied to AUDIO IN.
ON
The effect will be applied to AUDIO IN.
If you're sampling with FX POS (☞p.24) set to "AUDIO IN," the effect will be
applied to AUDIO IN regardless of this setting.
