[. . . ] E 1 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS · · · · · · Read these instructions. Mains powered apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and that no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or groundingtype plug. [. . . ] Similarly, if you assign samples to "Index" 002­008, the samples that sound when you play the C#2­G2 keys will also sound when you strike pads 2­8. In Sampling mode, you can't use velocity to vary the volume even if PAD MODE is set to VELOCITY SENSITIVE. These settings are made in the Sampling P4: Controllers­ Pads 1­4 Setup, or Pads 5­8 Setup page. You could also assign the pads to pitch ranges that you are not likely to play. To make the setting, select the note number field, and play the desired key while holding down the ENTER switch. 111 Appendices Other Drum Track KARMA Effect Media Global Sampling Sequencer Combination Program Immediately after the power is turned on, Position will be Right (to selected index), Zone Range will be 1 Keys, and Original Key Position will be Bottom, so that indexes will be created as shown below. This is convenient when you want to sample multiple takes of a phrase or rhythm loop in a single operation. Setup C4 key Keyboard range Introduction Quick Start Sampling (Open Sampling System) Basic sampling procedure Sampling your voice from a mic, and playing it back as a one-shot sample In this example we will use a mic connected to the AUDIO INPUT 1 jack to sample your voice in monaural. 5. With this setting, the input from the INPUT 1 jack will be sent to the internal L-channel and sampled in monaural. You have now made the settings necessary for sampling. Connect a mic and adjust the input level 1. Set the AUDIO INPUT MIC/LINE switch to the MIC position, turn the LEVEL knob to MIN, connect your mic, and then set the LEVEL knob to about the center position. MIC Mic Note: Take a look at the settings that have been made. Analog Input: Input 1 Level: 127, Pan: L000 BUS Select: L/R Sampling setup 1. If this page is not displayed, press the EXIT switch to make the page appear, and then press the Audio In/ Setup tab. Choose the menu command "Auto Sampling Setup"; the dialog box will appear. "Auto Sampling Setup" automatically sets the parameters necessary for sampling in each mode. You'll want to use these settings as a guideline when sampling. Specify the input level from the INPUT 1 jack, set the pan, and choose the L/R bus as the destination. Trigger: Sampling START SW Sampling will start when you press the SAMPLING START/STOP switch. Recording Level: +0. 0 This is the default setting for recording an external input. Sampling Mode: L­Mono The sound of the internal L channel will be sampled in mono. Let's change the "Trigger" setting which specifies how sampling will start. We'll set it to make sampling start when the audio input exceeds a specified volume. Recording will start automatically when an audio input of ­30 dB or greater occurs while in recordready mode. Recording will begin from a point slightly (5 ms) before sampling starts, so that the earliest portion of the sound is not lost. 3. Select "REC Audio Input. " This will make settings for sampling an external audio source. [. . . ] Program mode Oscillator volume, synth parameters, and effect parameters can be controlled.
