Writing the Audio Groove Slices
When the Time Slicing procedure is completed, you can save the data as a
new Sound, together with a series of separate percussive samples, a multi-
sample arranging them on the keyboard. A MIDI Groove containing the origi-
nal sequence converted to MIDI events will also be created.
1 While in the Sampling > Time Slice page, choose the Write command from
the page menu.

Sound location
Touch to open
the Sound Select
window
2 You may change the name of the Sound. Touch the Text Edit ( ) icon to
open the virtual keyboard and edit the name.
When done editing the name, confirm by touching the OK button under the
virtual keyboard.
3 When back to the Write Slice dialog, if you want to save onto a different lo-
cation touch the Select button and open the Sound Select window. Choose
a location as if you were choosing a Sound. Blank locations are shown as a
series of dashes (‘–––’).
4 When back at the Write Slice dialog, confirm the Write operation by touching
the OK button.
Together with the Sound and the associated samples and multisample, a
MIDI Groove with the same name will also be saved to the RAM memory.
This memory will be deleted when turning the instrument off. Therefore, im-
mediately convert the MIDI Groove to a Style or Pad pattern, as explained in
the following pages.
