Sampling - Yamaha DTXTREME III Owner's Manual

Sampling

The Sampling function lets you record audio signals such as vocals and CD playback sound to the DTXTREME III and play
those sounds by hitting the drum pads. Recording audio signals to the DTXTREME III is referred to as "sampling." In addition
to being able to record audio signals directly to the DTXTREME III, you can also import existing audio data (in WAV or AIFF
file format) in the File mode. This lets you use audio you've recorded and edited on computer with the DTXTREME III. Once
you've recorded or loaded the audio, you'll need to assign it to a User Voice which can be selected in the Drum Kit mode.
CAUTION
• The User Voices created in the Sampling mode reside temporarily in the optionally installed DIMMs (pages 76 and
147). Because data contained in DIMM is lost when the power is turned off, you should always save the User
Voices created by recording, editing, and using Jobs to a USB storage device before turning off the power. For
information on how to save, see pages 54 and 114.
In order to use the Sampling features of the instrument, you'll need to install DIMM
memory modules (sold separately) to the instrument.
