NN-XT SAMPLER459
Play Mode
By using this knob you can select one of the following loop modes for each zone:
•FW
The sample in the zone will play only once, without looping.
•FW-LOOP
The sample will play from the sample start point to the loop end point, jump back to the loop start point and then
loop infinitely between the start and end loop points. This is the most common loop mode.
•FW - BW
The sample will play from the sample start point to the loop end point, then from the loop end point to the loop start
point (backwards), and then loop infinitely forwards-backwards between the start and end loop points.
•FW-SUS
This works like FW-LOOP with the exception that it will only loop as long as the key is held down. As you release
the key, the sample will play to the absolute end of the sample, that is beyond the boundaries of the loop.
This means that the sound may have a short natural release even if the release parameter is raised to a high value
(which is not true for “FW-LOOP”, where the release parameter always controls the length of the sound after the
key is released).
•BW
The sample will play only once - from the end to the beginning - without looping.
Lo Key and Hi Key
These parameters are described in “Setting up Key Ranges”.
Lo Vel and Hi Vel
These parameters are described in “About velocity ranges”.
Fade In and Fade Out
These parameters are described in “About Crossfading Between Zones”.
Alt
This parameter is described in “About the Alternate function”.
Out
The NN-XT features eight separate stereo output pairs (see “Audio Output”). For each zone, you can decide which of
these output pairs to use. Thus, if you have created a key map consisting of eight zones, each of these can have a
separate stereo output from NN-XT, and can then be routed to a separate mixer channel if you so wish.
D To select which output a selected zone should be directed to, use the knob marked “Out” in the sample param-
eter area.
The output pairs are indicated above the button.
! Note that you still have to route the outputs the way you want them on NN-XT’s back panel. If you assign a
zone to an output pair other than 1-2 (which is the default) no connections or auto routing are made. You have
to do that manually.
