mouse button.
5) When the sampling stops, you will come to a screen showing the waveform of the sample that you
recorded.
6) You can audition the sample by placing the cursor on thewaveform and holding down the left mouse
button on the waveform. You can hear the loop that was automatically made by the S-760 by chang-
ing the mode type at the top-right of the screen from 1-shot to Forward by clicking the mouse on the
mode type.

Loop and Smoothing
The Loop and Smoothing page displays the waveform and the parameter information for setting the loop
points. To audition and scrub the waveform, place the mouse cursor in the thin rectangular box just
above the graphic of the waveform and hold down the left mouse button.
You will see a red line move across the screen and you will hear the sample. You can adjust the speed
of the playback by moving the cursor in the box right and left.
You can also reverse the playback at various speeds by moving the cursor towards the left side of the
box.
With some practice with using your mouse movements you can become adept at “scrubbing” the
waveform. On the right side of the graphic screen, there will be a percentage number and an arrow indi-
cating which direction the sample is playing back.
To lock the sample to continually playback its sound, you can click with the right mouse button in the
same thin rectangular box above the graphic. The sample will continue to play until you click the right
mouse button again in the box.
You can change the playback speed by clicking with your left mouse button in the same box to change
the playback speed or play the sample in reverse. This type of playback does not represent the actual
loop points that are set. To playback the sample with the loop points that you have set, make sure that
you put the loop mode at the upper right part of the screen at Forward, FWD+R, FWD+One, Alt, or Rev
to playback the actual loop points.
