the bar below the number. Use the [VALUE/FX CONTROL 2] knob to
adjust the value.
The ones and tens place can be adjusted in two-digit groups.
END.POINT
This adjusts the point at which the sample will stop playing.
As for the start point, you can adjust this in terms of a percentage (%), a
number of beats, or a numerical value.
In some cases, the pitch may not rise above a certain level as you narrow the
interval between the start point and end point.
DECAY ................................................................................................[0...127]
This specifies the time from when the key is pressed to start playback until
when the sound disappears.
The way in which the sound decays will depend on the RELEASE setting.
If DECAY is set to a value other than "127," the volume will continue
decreasing as the sample plays, regardless of the LOOP setting.
For example with the following settings, the sample playback volume will
change as follows.
■ With the settings DECAY = "127," RELEASE = "0"
Length of original sample

Note-on
If DECAY is set to "127," the volume will not decrease until you release the
key.
For example with the following settings, the sample playback volume will
change as follows.
■ With the settings DECAY = "64," RELEASE = "0"
If DECAY is set to "126" or lower, the volume will decrease even if you con-
tinue holding the key.
RELEASE ............................................................................................ [0...127]
This specifies the time from when you release the key until when the sound
disappears.
When PLAY.TYPE is "LOOP OFF" (for one-shot samples)
■ With the settings DECAY = "127," RELEASE = "127"

Note-off
If RELEASE is set to "127," the sample will play to its end without decreas-
ing in volume even if you release the key.
