/ EDIT SAMPLE

TRIM

Pressing TRIM will show something like this screen display:

Here, you can set start and end points and discard audio either side of them. The waveform

display is slightly different to that shown in the MASTER page in that the upper waveform shows

an overview of the sample with the loop area highlighted whilst the main lower waveform display

allows you to zoom in on it for a finer resolution:

The parameters are:

START/END These set the start and end points of the region you wish to edit. Use the

CURSOR keys to move around the field and the DATA wheel to adjust

the value. For example, in the screen shot shown above, to make a big

change to the start point, move the cursor to the 3 of 33989 using the

CURSOR < key. As you move the DATA wheel, you will increment in big

jumps. This is good for getting some way into the sound with little effort.

When you are close to where you want to be, move the cursor one

position right using the CURSOR> key to edit the start point in smaller

increments. As you get closer and closer to the point you want to set,

you can use finer incrementation until, with the cursor on the furthest

right field, you are editing to a resolution of individual sample accuracy.

You can use ZOOM IN to see the waveform with greater accuracy. You

will hear the results in real-time as you play your MIDI keyboard or use

the ENT/PLAY key and adjust the START or END times.

NOTE: If the sample has a loop, you cannot move the START and/or END point within the

loop.
