(Key 11 will go dark. ) If you decide to cancel without executing, press the Stop/Cancel key. Maximum level Truncate 4. Sample mode Deleting a sample (Delete Sample) This function completely deletes a sample from memory. (Key 14 will go dark. ) If you decide to cancel without deleting, press the Stop/Cancel key. Once a sample has been deleted, it cannot be recovered. Checking the remaining amount of sampling area (Memory) Use the cursor keys to make the parameter select LED indicate Memory. The display will indicate the remaining number of seconds of sampling time. Since stereo sampling uses twice as much memory, the available amount of sampling time will be half the amount that is displayed. 32 ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ Saving a sample (WRITE) After you record or modify a sample, you must perform the Write operation if you wish to keep the data. If you wish to intentionally discard the changes you have made to a sample and revert to the original data, simply change samples without saving. In the case of a newly recorded sample, the display will blink “- -. ” (or “- -. S” for a stereo sample). In the case of a monaural sample (including slice samples), you can choose from “00. ” through “99. ” In the case of a stereo sample, you can choose from “00. S” through “49. S. ” When you choose the unused sample number, a period is indicated on the lower right Lit side of display. Press the Write key once again, and the display will indicate that the data is being saved. When saving is complete, the display will change to the save destination number and the Write key will go dark. If you decide to cancel without writing, press the Stop/Cancel key. 1 2 2, 3 2 1, 3 With the factory settings, Memory Protect is turned on so that data cannot be saved. You must turn off Memory Protect before you execute the Write operation. (p. 56 “Memory Protect (Protect)”) When you execute the Write operation, the sample that had occupied the save destination will be overwritten. The data locations within internal memory are optimized when you write a sample, and this may take a certain amount of time (maximum of approximately 90 seconds). During this time, the display will show that the data is currently being saved. Never turn off the power until the data has been completely saved (i. e. , until the Write key goes dark). The same location can play back the original sample (if assigned to part 1—7B) or the sliced sample (if assigned to slice part). 5. Pattern mode In this mode you can play patterns, or edit them to make new patterns. Press the PATTERN mode key to enter Pattern mode. Selecting a pattern Pattern A01. . . b64 Pattern A01 Pattern A21 Use the cursor keys to make the parameter select LEDs indicate Pattern. Rotate the dial to select one of the 128 patterns: A01. . .
