STEP 2: Sampling
Here we’ll explain how to use Sampling to record to pad [1] of bank J.
1. Make sure that the [PATTERN SELECT] button is extinguished.
If it’s lit, press the button to turn it o .
2. Press the [ REC] button so the button is lit.
If you decide to
cancel sampling, Press the
[CANCEL] button.
3. Press the BANK [E/J] button so it’s blinking.
Press the BANK [E/J] button so it’s blinking.
If the button is lit, bank E is selected; press the [E/J] button
once again so it’s blinking.
Pads to which you can sample will blink.
4. Press the pad [1].
Pad [1] will light, and the [REC] button will blink.
5. Make STEREO setting.
Turn this o if you’re sampling in
monaural from a mic, etc.
How this a ects the sampling time
Sampling in monaural will give you approximately twice as much sampling time as stereo.
Monaural sampling also allows you to play twice as many samples simultaneously (12 monaural samples, or 6 stereo
samples).
