Root Key
e root key represents the keyboard key at which the sample will play back without
transposition (that is, at the same pitch as the pitch of the original sample). Use the
Previous-/Next+ buttons or Alpha Wheel to select a RootKey note, or use the alphanumeric
pad followed by the Enter button to enter a RootKey by MIDI note number.
Pitch Adjust
Use this parameter to change the pitch of the sample relative to the key from which it’s
played. Setting a value of 100cts, for example, will cause the sample to play back one
semitone higher than normal. is parameter is handy for ne tuning samples to each other
if they’re slightly out of tune.
Volume Adjust
Uniformly boost or cut the amplitude of the entire sample.
Alternative Start Volume Adjust (AltVolAdjust)
is parameter sets the amplitude of the sample when the alternative start is used. See
Alternative Switch (AltControl and AltMethod) on page 7-26 for a discussion.
Decay Rate
is parameter denes how long the sample takes to decay (fade) to zero amplitude (silence).
Decay Rate aects each sample individually, and is in eect only when the amplitude
envelope for the program (the Mode parameter on the AMPENV page in the Program
Editor) is set to Natural. If Mode is User, the settings on the AMPENV page override the
setting for DecayRate.
DecayRate takes eect in the loop portion of the sample, after all the attack stages of the
amplitude envelope are complete.
