Before you sample!
Make sure that you have sufficient memory before you begin sampling. If you have
loaded the demo song or created a song as described in the previous section, turn
the power off and then on again to clear the memory before you begin creating the
song described below.
2.4.1 Creating the LOOP 1 track
Sampling
On the LOOP 1 track, we will record the last measure from track 14-2 “Dear John B
(wet)-102 bpm” (drum phrase) of the included audio CD.
The sampling procedure is the same as described on page 50 of “Building Your
Own Song.”
Set the sampling grade to “44K 16BIT MONO L.”
Track editing (creating a looped phrase)
Adjust the start/end points of the sample of the LOOP 1 track to create an endless
loop.
The procedure for creating a looped phrase is the same as described on page 55 of
“Building Your Own Song.”
Modifying the sound
You can modify the tone of the sample and the way in which it sounds by playing it
back at a different pitch, by applying equalizer or effects, and by modifying the play-
back timing (attack, release, length).
Of the KNOB FUNCTION buttons, changes you make to parameters other than the
GROOVE parameters can be heard by pressing the pads. You can make as many
changes as you wish, even before playing back the sequencer.
Effect settings
First let’s apply the amp simulator effect that is assigned to the [EFFECT 1] button.
The amp simulator effect simulates the result of playing a sound through a guitar
amplifier.
