Sampling and Sample Editing
Editing Samples
Editing Samples
Most of the functions within the Sample Editor follow a general pattern. There are two ways to 
enter the Sample Editor. If you start from Master mode and press the Sample soft button, then 
select a sample and press Edit, you can hear the isolated sample. If you want to hear the sample 
in the context of a program, enter the Sample Editor through the Program Editor:  start by 
selecting a program in Program modeÑusually the program containing the sample you want to 
edit. Press the Edit button to enter the Program Editor. Press the KEYMAP soft button to view 
the KEYMAP page. The KeyMap parameter is selected (highlighted) when the page appears. 
Press the Edit button to enter the Keymap Editor. The KeyRange parameter is selected when the 
page appears. The notes within the currently selected key range are the only ones that will be 
affected by your edits. You can hold the Enter button and trigger notes to select different key 
ranges.
If you want to select a different sample, use the cursor buttons to select the Sample parameter. 
Use the Alpha Wheel to select a sample. Press the Edit button once more, and youÕll enter the 
Sample Editor. (Pressing the Edit button while in the Keymap Editor will enter the Sample 
Editor regardless of which parameter is selected.) The effects of the current program will be 
applied to the sample.
The TRIM page appears when you enter the Sample Editor. A representative TRIM page is 
shown below.
There are three basic sample editing pagesÑTRIM, LOOP, and MISC (Miscellaneous). The soft 
buttons for these pages are visible when you enter the Sample Editor. The DSP soft button is 
visible as well if youÕre editing a RAM sample; pressing it will take you to the DSP function 
page, where you can select a DSP function with the Alpha Wheel or Plus/Minus buttons.
The DSP soft button does not appear if youÕre viewing a ROM sample. Instead youÕll see a Link 
soft button.
The <more> soft buttons will take you to the soft buttons for the other functions. You can trigger 
notes at any time while youÕre editing, to hear your changes as you make them.
The Function Soft Buttons in the Sample Editor
In addition to the MISC, TRIM, and LOOP soft buttons, which select Sample-editor pages, 
there are several function soft buttons. As with other K2600 editors, the function soft buttons are 
labeled with upper and lower case letters, to distinguish them from the page selection soft 
buttons, which are labeled in all capital letters. The <more> soft buttons give you access to the 
other soft buttons that are available.
