Sample Editing: TRIM Mode 106
Setting the Root Note of a Sample
With a sample selected in TRIM mode, pressing the [WINDOW] button
will open the SAMPLE page. Here, a sample's Root Note can be edited.
This Root Note parameter selects at what note the sample will play at
true pitch when in a Keygroup Program.
This field can be edited by using the [DATA] wheel, or by pressing a note
on your MIDI Keyboard.
Other editing functions
NORMALIZE
When you assign a sample recorded at low level, its playback level will also be low. You can set the levels of pads in the
MIXER mode, but you have to set some pads to a lower level. With the normalize function you can increase the sample
level to the highest level possible without being distorted.
Tips: If you do not like the results of your sample edit, the edit can be undone by pressing the [UNDO] button. To redo
the change, press the [UNDO] button again.
06. In the 'Sample' field, select the sample you wish to normalize.
07. Press [F6] (EDIT).
The Sample Edit window will be displayed.
08. In the 'Edit' field, select NORMALIZE.

Normalizing will start. It may take some time to process depending on the length of the sample.
