Sample (Sound Programs) - Korg PA 80 User Manual

14-4 Program operating mode
Page 2 - Sample (Sound Programs)
When legato is on, multiple note-on's will not
retrigger the voice. If one note is already on
and another note is turned on, the first voice
will continue sounding. The oscillator sound,
envelope, and LFO will not be reset, and only
the pitch of the oscillator will be updated. This
setting is effective for wind instrument sounds
and analog synth-type sounds.
No Legato is off. Notes will always be retriggered
when note-on occurs.
When legato is off, multiple note-on's will
retrigger the voice at each note-on. The oscilla-
tor sound, envelope, and LFO will be reset
(and retriggered) according to the settings of
the Program.
Note: If "Legato" is On, certain multisamples or keyboard loca-
tions may produce an incorrect pitch.
Priority
This parameter is available when the "Mode" parameter is set
to Mono. It specifies which note will be given priority to play
when two or more notes are played simultaneously.
Low Lowest note will take priority.
High Highest note will take priority.
Last Last note will take priority.
PAGE 2 - SAMPLE (SOUND PROGRAMS)
The multisample(s) (waveform) on which the Program will
be based can be selected here for each of the four oscillators.
Each oscillator can use 1 or 2 multisamples, each one
assigned to the High or Low layer.
Samples
Selected:
MS Hi Bank/Num:
L>AcousticPiano
[H] Reverse:
The internal Flash-ROM contains 340 different multisamples
(preset multisamples). By selecting a CARD multisample,
you can use a multisample read from the Card (if inserted in
the slot).
Selected
Use this parameter to select an oscillator to put in edit. Alter-
natively, you can select oscillators using the F1-F4 buttons.
MS Hi/Lo Bank/Num
Use these parameters to select a different multisample for
each of the High and Low layers. You can use velocity to
switch between the two multisamples. Reverse, Offset and
Level can be adjusted independently for the High and Low
multisamples.
The first line is where you select the bank (ROM or CARD),
while the second line is for selecting the multisample. The
Program number appears at the end of the second line.
The multisample you select for the High layer will be trig-
gered by velocities higher than the value of the "Velocity
Switch" parameter (see page 14-4). If you do not wish to use
|Osc1
Osc1
ROM
0
No
velocity switching, set the switch to a value of 001, and select
only the High multisample.
ROM Select a preset multisample.
CARD Select a Card multisample.
Note: If you create a new Program based on a
Card multisample, the card must be inserted
before selecting the Program, or no sound will be
heard.
Note: Each multisample has an upper limit, and may not pro-
duce sound when played above that limit.
[H/L] Reverse
The multisample will be played in reverse. In the case of
Flash-ROM or optional (CARD) multisamples that were
originally specified to loop, the multisample will be played
back in "one-shot" reverse mode. If the multisample was
originally set to reverse, it will playback without change.
Yes The multisample will playback in reverse.
No The multisample will play back normally.
[H/L] Use Offset
These parameters specify the point where the multisample(s)
will begin to play. For some multisamples this parameter will
not be available.
Yes The sound will begin from the offset location
pre-determined for each multisample.
No The sound will start from the beginning of the
multisample waveform.
[H/L] Level
These parameters specify the level of each multisample.
0...127 Multisample level.
Note: Depending on the multisample, high settings of this
parameter may cause the sound to distort when a chord is
played. If this occurs, lower the level.
Velocity Switch
This is the velocity value dividing the High and Low layers for
the selected oscillator. Notes struck harder than this value
will be played by the High multisample.
V-Zone Top/Bottom (Velocity Zone)
Here you can specify the velocity range for the selected oscil-
lator.
Note: You cannot set the Bottom Velocity higher than the Top
Velocity, nor the Top Velocity lower than the Bottom Velocity.
0...127 Assigned velocity.
Octave
Use this parameter to adjust the pitch of the selected oscilla-
tor in octave units. The normal octave of the multisample is
"0".
-2...+1 Octave transposition.
Transpose
Use this parameter to adjust the pitch of the selected oscilla-
tor in semitone steps over a range of ±1 octave.
-12...+12 Transposition in semitones.
Tune
Use this parameter to adjust the pitch of the sample in one-
cent steps (a semitone is 100 cents) over a range of ±1 octave.
-1200...+1200
Fine-tune value in cents.
