The Multisample is a way of organizing several samples on the
keyboard. Each sample is assigned to a Keyboard Zone (or
Index), with a higher and a lower limit.
A Multisample is then assigned to a Sound (see "Basic > OSC
Basic" on page 210), where it is enriched with several perfor-
mance parameters, like Amplitude Envelope, LFO, Filters, etc...
MS (MultiSample)
Touch this area to open the Choose Multisample window, and
select one of the available multisamples in memory.
Keyboard diagram
This diagram shows the selected Index/Zone (highlighted), and
its Original Note (in red). Use the big "–" and "+" button on its
side to scroll the diagram one octave lower or upper.
Multisample Setup
Index
Index number of the selected Zone of the multisample / total
number of Zones in the multisample. A Zone always corre-
sponds to a single sample.
When you play a note on the keyboard, the corresponding index
number is automatically selected.
Sample Number / Name
Number / name of the sample assigned to the selected zone of
the multisample.
Original Note
Use this parameter to automatically transpose the assigned sam-
ple on the keyboard. When you play this note, the sample sounds
exactly as it was recorded.
At first, it matches the "OrigNote (Original Note)" value
assigned when editing the sample (see page 238). This will speed
up the programming.
The note set with this parameter is also shown in red in the vir-
tual keyboard diagram.
Level
Relative level of the selected zone. This value can only be nega-
tive.
Pitch
Fine tuning of the selected sample in cents (1 cent = 1/100 of a
semitone).
From ... To
Range of the selected Zone (or Index). The minimum size is one
key. When reducing the range of a zone, the adjacent one is auto-
matically increased to fill the gap.
Hint: To create a silent zone, create it and assign no sample to it.
Buttons
Insert
Touch this button to split the current zone in half, and create a
new zone (Index) on the left of the selected one.
Add
Touch this button to add a new zone (Index) after the last one.
Delete
Touch this button to delete the selected Zone/Index. The zone
on the right of the deleted one is automatically extended to fill
the gap.
