Sampling P0: Recording 0–8: Audio Input
577
Off (unchecked): The L/R (post-TFX) signals and the
signals of the bus selected by Source Bus will be
output from the L/R jacks and the headphone jack
according to the Audio Input Bus Select (8–1b) and
post-IFX Bus Select (8–5a) settings. This is the normal
state.
Note: If Source Bus is L/R, this setting is ignored, and
the L/R (post-TFX) signal will always be output from
the L/R jacks and headphone jacks.
Pre Trigger REC [000…500ms]
If you want a portion of sound immediately before the
start of sampling to be included in the recorded
sample, set this parameter to specify the length.
When sampling with “Trigger” Threshold, sampling
will start when the input signal exceeds the Level
threshold level. However if the Level setting causes a
portion of the attack to be lost, you can set the “Pre
Trigger REC” parameter to capture the early attack as
well.
When sampling with “Trigger” Sampling START SW, it
is best to use “Metronome Precount” so that the
instrumental performance etc. is sampled in tempo. If
the performance is ahead of the tempo, this Pre Trigger
REC parameter lets you sample without losing any of
it.
If you increase this setting, you will always be
sampling an unneeded portion ahead of the desired
sample. Normally you should set this to 000 ms, and
specify the minimum required length when
necessary.
Trigger [Sampling START SW, Note On, Threshold]
Specifies how sampling will be initiated.
Sampling START SW: Pressing the SAMPLING REC
switch will cause the OASYS to enter sampling-
standby mode, and sampling will begin when you
press the SAMPLING START/STOP switch.
1. Press the SAMPLING REC switch to enter
sampling-standby mode.
2. Use the “Recording Level [dB]” slider to adjust the
sampling level.
3. Sampling will begin when you press the
SAMPLING START/STOP switch.
(If you are using the “Metronome Precount”
function, pressing the SAMPLING START/STOP
switch will cause sampling to begin after the
metronome sounds a count-down. If Metronome
Setup “Bus (Output) Select” (0–8d) is set to L/R, the
metronome will stop sounding at the moment that
sampling begins.)
4. To stop sampling, press the START/STOP switch
once again.
Sampling will also stop automatically if it continues
to the specified “Sample Time” (0–1d).
If you want to apply an effect etc. to an existing sample
and automatically create a new sample (Resampling),
set “Trigger” to Sampling START SW, and set
“Resample” (0–8c) to Auto.
Note On: Press the SAMPLING REC switch and then
press the SAMPLING START/STOP switch to enter
sampling-standby mode. Sampling will begin when
you play the keyboard.
Sampling will also begin if a MIDI note-on is
received (instead of playing the keyboard).
1. Perform steps 1 and 2 described above.
2. Press the SAMPLING START/STOP switch.
3. When you play the keyboard or when a MIDI
note-on is received, sampling will start
automatically.
4. To stop sampling, perform step 4, above.
Threshold: Sampling will begin automatically when
the input level exceeds the specified “Level.”
1. Press the SAMPLING REC switch to enter
sampling-standby mode.
2. Use the “Recording Level [dB]” slider to adjust the
sampling level.
Be careful of changes in the monitoring volume.
(“Recording Level [dB]” 0–8b)
3. Adjust the Level setting. The red triangles at both
sides of the “Recording Level [dB]” level bar
display will indicate the Level value.
Normally you will set this to a low a level as
possible without allowing sampling to be triggered
by noise.
4. Press the SAMPLING START/STOP switch. When
the input level exceeds the Level you specified,
sampling will begin automatically.
5. To stop sampling, press the START/STOP switch
once again.
Alternatively, sampling will end automatically if it
continues to the time specified for “Sample Time”
(0–1d).
Metronome Precount [Off, 4, 8, 3, 6]
This specifies whether the metronome will sound a
count-down before sampling begins. This can be set
only if “Trigger” is set to Sampling START SW.
Off: Sampling will begin immediately when you press
the SAMPLING START/STOP switch from recording-
standby mode.
4, 8, 3, 6: When you press the SAMPLING
START/STOP switch from recording-standby mode,
the metronome will count the specified number of
beats at the “ (Tempo)” tempo, and then sampling will
begin. If you set this to 4, sampling will begin on the
count of 0 after a pre-count of 4–3–2–1–0.
The output destination and level of the metronome
sound are specified by Metronome Setup (0–8d). If
“Bus (Output) Select” is set to L/R, the metronome
will stop sounding the instant sampling actually
begins.
Resample [Manual, Auto]
Specifies how resampling will occur.
This can be set only if “Trigger” is set to Sampling
START SW.
The process of sampling a sample (or samples) is called
“resampling.”
