PREFERENCES
This allows you to personalise your sampler’s settings. Pressing PREFERENCES shows something
like this screen:
The parameters are:
NOTE DISPLAY This allows you to choose whether to display notes as MIDI numbers
(i.e. 0-127) or as names (C 0 - G 8) in all displays where notes are
shown.
LOOP DISPLAY This allows you to select whether LOOP LENGTH is displayed in time
(i.e. 1 sec) or samples (i.e. 44100).
SCREEN DISPLAY This allows you to invert the screen display. You may have white lettering
on a blue background (NORMAL) or blue lettering on a white background
(INVERTED).
SCREEN SAVER This turns off the LCD’s backlight at timed intervals in order to preserve
it. If the function is enabled, the backlight will switch off after
n
minutes
of inactivity. To re-activate it, press any key.
KEY REPEAT DLY This sets the delay time before certain keys such as SCROLL UP/DOWN
and SELECT keys start auto-repeating.
FAN SPEED This sets the speed of the internal fan, used to cool any hard drives that
may be installed. The options are SLOW or NORMAL.
NOTE: The FAN SPEED control is only applicable to the S6000. This parameter does not
appear on the S5000.
