SAMPLE Function
SAMPLE Function
You use the SAMPLE function to load one or all samples from a floppy disk or SCSI disk
volume into the A3000 main memory. Before using this function, you must select the
source disk or volume using the DISK or VOLUME function.
• If loading from a floppy disk, you must first insert the floppy disk into the A3000
floppy drive, and then select the disk at the DISK function. (☞268)
• If loading from a SCSI disk, you must first select the disk (partition) and volume
containing the program(s) you want to load. (☞268, 266)
For details about the relationship between disks, partitions, and volumes, refer to the
section entitled “Disks and Volumes” in Chapter 3. (☞81)
Please note that is possible to audition a sample directly from SCSI disk, so that you can
check the sound before deciding whether or not to load it. To hear the sample, first
select it with Knob 2 or 3 at the SmpLoad page (see below), and then press the AUDI-
TION key. (This feature does not work with floppy disks, and some SCSI disks may not
support it.)
FYI
Before you can load samples, you must first save them to disk. You can save your sam-
ples to disk using the PLAY | SAMPLE function. (☞112)
