3.6.7 Capturing Samples From Other Decks
Remixing with the F1 takes on a new dimension with live capture: you can quickly and easily
capture from tracks playing in other Track Decks or the Loop Recorder and, thereby, create a
Remix Deck (and, of course, a remix) on-the-fly.
Preparations
First of all, you'll need to load a track into a Track Deck. We'll use the "TechHouse 1" track for
this tutorial.
►
Load "TechHouse 1" from the "All Tracks" folder of the "Track Collection" node into Deck
A (we are using Deck B as our Remix Deck), and start playback of the Deck.
The capture source Deck doesn't need to be playing — you can sample from a stopped
Deck just as easily as from one that is playing. However, when the Deck is playing, you
hear the material will capture (see below).
Determining the Capture Source
1. Press and hold the CAPTURE (DELETE) button on your F1.
2. While continuing to hold the CAPTURE (DELETE) button, rotate the encoder knob. You
will see a Pad Matrix animation that will graphically indicate which of the four decks (or
the Loop Recorder) will be the focus. At the same time, the display indicates the source
names as well ("cA" for capture Deck A, "cB" for capture Deck B, and "cL" for capture
Loop Recorder). Make sure the display reads "cA."
3. When releasing the CAPTURE (DELETE) button, the controller remains in Capture mode.
You can now set the capture length as explained in the next section.
Determining the Capture Length
Notice the number in the display.
