12. Using the Built In Sampler:
Your Pro Scratch 1 comes with a built in sampler. You may store up to three samples on the three
FLASH
BUTTON (6)
. Your sample can be a maximum of 6.5 seconds in length. A sample can be recalled while a CD is
playing, while the CD drive is in PAUSE MODE, or even without the CD in the player. You may play your sample
at anytime without music interruption. If you play your sample when the unit is already in playback mode you
sample will over lap the current music source. You can also play your sample once or in a continuous loop. As
with cue points you may store a maximum of
128*3
sample per in a drives memory. The
MEMORY BUCKET
(53)
o
n the
LCD DISPLAY (1)
will approximate the remaining memory.
To create a sample:
1) Initialize a loop (see looping page 13).
If your loop is longer than
6.5
seconds it can not be stored as a
sample and will stored as a Cue Point.
4) The red
MEMORY BUTTON (7)
LED will turn off, when your sample is locked
into memory.
5) At this point your sample has been stored into memory. The original loop you
used to create the sample will remain playing until the OUT BUTTON (18) is
pressed (Figure 26).
