Because of this, we recommend setting the SCSI BUFFER size to the largest amount available on
your ASR-10. The SCSI BUFFER size is set with the Command/System*MIDI, CONFIGURE
AUDIO TRACKS command (see later).
Preparing to Record Audio Tracks
There are four things that you must do before recording Audio Tracks in the ASR-10:
1 4.
1 PreDare the Audio Tracks I
The following sections contain rules and steps that must be followed prior to recording.
Step One: Selecting the System Sample Rate
1: Select the sample rate
2. Configure the Audio Tracks
3. Choose a Record Source
4. Prepare the Audio Tracks
(Select 30 or 44.1 KHz effects for use)
The sample rate of the current effect algorithm on the FX Select*FX Bypass page determines the
sample rate at which AudioSamples will be recorded.
To Select the Sample Rate
1. Press the CFX SELECT-FX BYPASS] button. The display shows:
]
2 Press the (a) button. The display now shows the sample rate for the selected effect:
/,,,,,,I,,,,,
3. Press the (p> button to return to the effect select display.
@ Important: If you plan to use the Digital I/O Output, make sure that a 44.1 KHz effect is selected.
Selecting an effect that uses a different sample rate than the rate at which previously recorded
AudioSamples were recorded will change the pitch of this material during playback. For this
reason, we strongly recommend choosing one sample rate for the duration of an Audio Track
recording Project (SONG + ALL SEQS file).
When recording Audio Tracks, we do not recommend setting FX=m on the FX Select*FX Bypass
page. Ideally, set FX= BANK. This will prevent Instrument selection from inadvertently changing
the system sample rate, and will ensure that the correct effect is saved when you save the Bank.
For a complete list and descriptions of the 44.1 KHz effect algorithms found on the OS. disk, see
the section titled “44 KHz Effect Descriptions and Variations.”
