3.
Play with
a
new
"voice
tone" program using
El
(46)~E),4
(75)
keys
on
the
keyboard.
*
This
example
uses
4 banks considering
the average
tone
range of
human voice. Next, try
recording samples
of a
wider tone range,
using
8
all banks. If you
find the difference
in the
tone range between
maie and
female voices,
they are of
course possible to be
recorded.
*
With "ALL2"
file,
you
can
record
and
immediately
play as
above. If
you
create a
multi-sampled
program
from scratch,
it requires that
various
parameter
settings—each
bank should be
assigned
with, at leastthe
same program
number and
MIDI
channel, individual key
ranges and
transpositions.
Transposition for
Multi-sample Programs
When a sample is
made, its
original pitch is
automatically
assigned to C3
(60).
Therefore, for
example if you
have made a
sample at a pitch of C2
and play
it using C2
on the keyboard, it will be
played at a
pitch of CI (without
tranposition).
In this case,
if the
transposition value should be set
to +12
so
that you can
play the sample
at
C2 using
C2
on the
keyboard.
In the same way, it
is necessary with
multi-sampling
for each
sample to be assigned to
the appropriate
keyboard position using
TRANSPOSEparameter to be
played
in its
original pitch. The
TRANSPOSE
value can be determined
by
the
difference between the
original
pitch and the pitch of C3.

ALL3 File
This contains
a
multi-timbral programto be
controlled by a
sequencer, etc.
A multi-timbral
program
is
enabled
by 8
separate MIDI channels and 8
different samples
assigned to
individual banks.
If you make a drum part assigning percussion
samples to
several banks, there may be
cases
where
those banks' MIDI channels should be
matched to
receive a
common
drum-part sequence on a
specific charmel.

Example:
Using the
S01 as a
multi-timbral sound module
When
making an ensemble
on the S01
using sequence data as
follows:
MIDI channel:
1;
piano
2;
bass
3;
flute
1
.
Load "ALL3" file into
the S01
.
2. Load (or actually record)
a "piano" sample
into
bank
1
, a
"bass"
sample
into bank2,
and a "flute"
sample into bank
3.
3.
Start sequencing from
the
sequencer, and each sample
will begin
playback
receiving
the
sequence data on the
same
channel
as
assigned
to
its bank.
*
With
"ALL3" file,
you can
immediately play back the sequence
if
appropriate
tone
samples
have loaded. If
you create
a
multi-timbral program, it is
required
that each
bank
should
be
assigned with,
at least
the
same program number and
a
separate
MIDI
channel.
When several
banks needs
to receive the same channel information, of
course
their
MIDI
channels should
be
matched.
