Multisample editing
Editing a multisample is accomplished with a number of
operations i.e. creating indexes for the multisample and
assigning a sample to each index, editing operations such as
deleting, copying, and inserting indexes, and detailed
settings such as sample level and pitch for each index.
Multisample editing is performed in Multisample.
You can also do some basic edits in the Recording–
Recording page.
Editing the indexes
To change the number or order of the indexes, use the Insert,
Cut, Copy, and Create buttons.
1. Select the Multisample Edit page.
2. Use “Multisample (MS)” to select the multisample
that you wish to edit.
3. Select the “Index.”
You can also select an index by holding down the
VALUE controller or ENTER button and playing a note
on the keyboard.
4. Press the buttons to modify the number or order of
the indexes, and edit them.
To delete the selected index, press the Cut button.
The Insert button is used in conjunction with the Cut and
Copy buttons. The contents of the index that was Cut or
Copied will be inserted.
The Create button has the same function as the Create
button in Recording– Recording page (see “Creating
multisample indexes and sampling–Recording” on
page 132).
Modifying the settings of an index
1. Make the settings described in steps 1–3 of “Editing
the indexes.”
2. Set parameters for the selected index.
•Use Sample to specify the sample for the selected index.
You can also select a sample here.
•Use Orig. Key (Original Key) to specify the original key
of the sample.
• Changing the Top Key will change the upper limit of the
zone. Simultaneously, the lower limit of the next-
numbered index will also change. Range indicates the
zone determined by the Top Key setting.
• Level adjusts the playback level of the sample. You can
use this to ensure that all samples in a multisample have
a consistent level.
• If you check Constant Pitch, all notes in the index zone
will sound the sample at its original pitch.
• Pitch adjusts the sample pitch for each index. You can
use the Pitch BPM Adjust page menu command to set
the loop interval to the desired tempo. For more
information, see “Pitch BPM Adjust” on page 629 of the
PG.
EQ and controllers
The EQ page lets you use a mid-sweepable three-band EQ to
adjust the sound.
