Automatically Detecting Events; Deleting And Adding Events - Roland V-Synth XT Owner's Manual

Creating and Editing Samples (Sample Mode)

Automatically Detecting Events

By specifying the Depth, you can automatically detect and "▼"mark
locations where there is a strong attack (i.e., locations where the
volume changes abruptly). Such marked locations are called events.

Depth (Encode Depth)
In the SAMPLE Encode screen, move the cursor to "Depth" and set
the value. The higher the value you set, the more events will be
assigned.
fig.04-23_50
Value: 0–127
If the Playback Mode (p. 87) is "STEP," the sample will play to
the next event, and then stop each time you play the key. When
the Playback Mode is set to "EVENT," the sample will be
divided at event locations, and assigned to each key.
• If you set Depth to a high value, a large number of events may
be detected. If you encode in such a state, the interval between
events will be too short, and the expected result will not be
obtained when you play back in event units.
• If you change the location of an event after encoding, you must
re-encode the sample. When you encode, the newly detected
event locations will take effect.

Deleting and Adding Events

Setting the Encode Depth and automatically detecting events does
not guarantee that the events will be added at the locations that you
expect. If necessary, you can delete or add events as you like.
In the SAMPLE Encode screen, you can touch <PREVIEW> to play
the sample from the current location until the next event. By
touching <PREVIEW>, you can play the sample to see whether
events have been assigned to the locations that you expect.
• Be aware that if you change the encode depth after deleting or
adding events, the events that were modified manually will be
discarded, and the events that were detected by depth will be
displayed.
• If you modify the location of events after encoding, you must re-
encode. The modified location of the events will take effect when
you encode.
Deleting an Event
1. Move the cursor to "Current."
2. By turning the VALUE dial, pressing [INC][DEC], or dragging
your finger over the sample in the screen, set Current to the
location of the event that you want to delete.
3. Touch either
or
The Current location will move to the location of the next event
toward the left or right.
4. Repeat step 3 to move Current to the location of the event
that you wish to delete.
5. Touch
to delete the event.
The events at the beginning and end of a sample cannot be
deleted.
Adding an Event
1. Move the cursor to "Current."
2. By turning the VALUE dial, pressing [INC][DEC], or dragging
your finger over the sample in the screen, move Current to
the location at which you want to add the event.
3. Touch
to add the event.
