Loading Samples and Programs
Some sample formats, such as Akai and Kurzweil,
allow you to load individual Samples (equivalent
to the SK760/880 Series samples) and Programs
(similar to the SK760/880 Series Waveforms).
In such cases, when you select a file type from
the “File Open” window, a second selection win-
dow appears:
Use the Up/Down cursor arrows to select an in-
dividual sample, or select “All samples” and press
ENTER to confirm.
A Program organizes the Samples by defining
the keyboard ranges to which they are assigned.
Unlike the Waveform of the SK760/880 Series, a
Program can distribute the Samples over sev-
eral different “Levels” (dynamic levels).
Sample Translator can load single Samples, or it
can convert, in a single operation, an entire “level”
of the Program into a SK760/880 Series Wave-
form. If a Program contains more than one “level”,
it can be converted entirely in successive phases,
using
(a)
a Sound Patch,
(b)
a multi track con-
figuration,
c)
a Sound containing a key-dynamic
assignment (executed in Edit Sound).
Conversion limitations
A SK760/880 Waveform can contain only 16 sam-
ples. For example, an Akai S1000™ level can
contain up to 99 Samples, therefore, when a con-
version is carried out, only the 16 Samples from
the lowest register are loaded.
These kind of Samples can overlap even inside
a dynamic Level. Sample Translator eliminates
this overlap, using the lowest limit-note of the
highest pitched sample as the limit between sam-
ples.
Receiving Samples via a Dump
You can also Dump samples into Sample Trans-
lator via the Sample Request option (F7). This is
discussed in detail on page 16.53.
