As with start truncation, samples are truncated in groups rather than one at a
time, even with the fine truncation slider. Also, activating Slider D may alter Slider
C’s initial setting; readjust Slider D to compensate. Go back and forth between
these two controls until you find the ideal end truncation point.
5. After setting the desired truncation points, press ENTER. The display asks:
Cancel
Truncation? Y/N
Now’s your chance to bail out, if need be, and start over again. Press YES to
cancel truncation and return to the Module Identifier. Otherwise, press NO and
proceed.
6. The display now asks:
Make Truncation
Permanent? Y/N
To permanently erase the truncated sections, press YES. To retain the truncated
information in memory (so that you can truncate the sample again later in a
different way), press NO. Either response will return you to the Module Identifier.
Note: If you want to erase the truncated sections to conserve Bank memory, yet
keep a copy the untruncated Voice, save it to a Library disk (see VOICE
DEFINITION 30).
7. If you try to truncate a sample which has already been truncated, but for which
the truncation has not been made permanent, display will first ask:
Cancel
Truncation? Y/N
If you press YES, the Emulator II assumes you didn’t really want to truncate the
sample and returns to the Module Identifier. If you press NO, the display will read
the current truncation settings. You may continue to play with truncation, or exit
to another function as described in GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 3 (“Exiting a
Function”).
