open the virtual keyboard and edit the name.
When done editing the name, confirm by touching the OK button under the
virtual keyboard.
3 If you are saving a percussive sample, use the Drum Sample family pop-up
menu to choose a Drum Sample family.
4 Select an option to choose a location where to save the sample:
