Module: SAMPLE 7 Function: FORCE SAMPLING
Force sampling lets you initiate sampling manually as an alternative to threshold-sensitive
sampling. This is useful for situations where the signal to be sampled is more or less continuous
(continuous signals greatly complicate the threshold - setting process described in SAMPLE 5).
1. With the module active and levels properly set, as soon as you are ready to sample key in 7. Sampling
will begin immediately, and the display will say “Sampling.”
2. After reaching the end of the sample length (if set with SAMPLE 4), being stopped manually
(SAMPLE 8), or when Emax runs out of memory, the display will return to the Module Identifier.
3. If you are satisfied with the sample, de-activate the module.
Module: SAMPLE 8 Function: STOP SAMPLING
You can end sampling at any time by keying in 8. After sampling, the display will return to the
Module Identifier.
Module: SAMPLE 0 Function: CHANGE CURRENT SAMPLE
If you take consecutive samples without exiting the sample module, each sample will overwrite
the previous sample. However, you can specify a new sample into which a sample will go -- even
without exiting the sample module -- by keying in 0. Emax will default to the next empty sample
number.
1. The display says:
Where XX is the Voice number and YY is the keyboard placement of the sample.
