GENERAL OPERATION
1. Overview of the operation modes
T 1 Sample Mode
■ Functions of the sample mode.
Functions in this mode let you make a digital recording of
an audio signal received through the AUDIO IN jack on
the DSS-1. This process is called “sampling.” The
sampled sounds are stored in wave memory and used to
produce a multisound.
* Initial d isplay in the sam ple m ode.
■ You can set the multisound length to "full" or “half”
■ The multisound assembled here will have 1, 2, 4, 8,
or 16 parts, each of which will be a sampled sound {or
simply a “sample") of the same time length and using
the same sampling frequency (but having a different
wavelength).
Parameter settings for multisounds made in the
sample mode.
• Multisound name: ! NO NAME
• Length
Full: 261886
Half: 130942
• Loop ON
• Relative tune: 00
• Relative level: 64
• Relative Fc: 64
★ Wave memory is used as the sampling data storage
area. Any previous multisound data in memory is lost
during the sampling process. Therefore, before using
the sample mode, be sure to save current wave
memory contents to disk as sounds or multisounds
(assuming that you want to keep that data).
* In this mode you can put a name on a sample and
save it to disk as a sound. However, to save it as a
multisound you must first change to the multisound
mode.
12] Create Waveform Mode
■ Functions of the create waveform mode
This lets you use additive synthesis or "hand draw
ing" to create a waveform. It also lets you choose one
waveform from within a multisound and save it to disk
as a sound.

* Immediately after hand drawing, it is possible to edit
the values of individual data words.
■ In this mode, first the waveform assigned to the
lowest octave is created. Then eight other waveforms
are made, each having half again the wavelength of
the one next lowest on the keyboard. (That isT 1/2,
1/4, ... 1/128). These form the components of the
multisound.
* F3 can not be selected until hand drawing or additive
synthesis are performed.
