MULTISOUND MODE
F6 LOOP START & LENGTH
\ About the loop start & length function
■ Allows you to set the loop start and loop length
parameters of a sound within a multisound as
selected with F1.
■ Auto Zero Cross Search capability.
This automatically finds appropriate places for the
loop start and loop length points by looking for the
zero cross points and polarity changes.
An example is shown in the diagram. Assume that
loop start is initially set at point (A), so that the sum of
loop start and loop length is loop end point (B). Now
if w e execute the auto ze ro cross soarch, it looks
backward for the closest zero cross point to (B),
which is (1) and establishes that as the new loop end.
Then it looks tor the closest zero cross point to {A)
that has the same polarity change as (A). This point
[1] is set as the new loop start point. (So that loop
length is now (1) minus [1].) Now each time you press
the left cursor key, the loop start point goes to the
next suitable point to the left fl2] then (3], etc.). (Note
that the loop start value gets smaller as loop length
gets longer.)
Likewise, pressing the right cursor key moves the
loop start position back (from [2] to [1], for example).
(So that the loop start value increases while the loop
length value decreases.)
