Recording a sample

The ES-1 II lets you connect an audio device (e.g., CD or MD) or
mk
mic and record various sounds to use as samples. A maximum of 95
seconds can be sampled and kept in internal memory.
If the factory preloaded samples are rewritten or erased, they
cannot be restored to their original state. If you do not want to
lose the factory preloaded samples, purchase a SmartMedia
card and perform the Save operation (☞p.55) to make a
backup.
If you run out of memory while sampling, sampling will stop
automatically. Before you start sampling, use the Sample mode
Memory function (☞p.32) to check the remaining amount of
sampling time.
Stereo samples occupy twice as much memory. The available
time for sampling will be one half of the time displayed in
Memory (☞p.32).
Connect an audio device (e.g., CD or MD) or mic to the AUDIO IN
jack. If you connect a line-level device such as a CD or MD, set the
MIC/LINE select switch to the LINE position. If you connect a mic,
set the switch to the MIC position.
For details on the sampling procedure, refer to 3. Basic operation
(Quick Start), p.23 "Recording a sample."

Selecting a sample

Use the cursor keys to make the parameter select LED indicate
SAMPLE. Rotate the dial to select one of the 150 samples from "00."
(displayed as "00.
or from "00.S" to "49.S." Samples from "00." to "99." are monau-
ral samples, and will be displayed as "00.
"00.S" to "49.S" are stereo samples.
