processing it will process the sample in those other presets. Therefore, upon selecting the
voice, you will be asked if you want to copy the sample.
Note that if two voices in the same preset use a single sample, then you will not be asked
to copy first, and any changes will affect both voices in the preset.
3. While you remain in the Digital Processing module, all voices other than the current
voice will be muted as you play the keyboard. The specified current voice will remain
as is until you either change the voice assignment (
DIGITAL PROCESSING 0
), change
presets, or load another bank. The current voice will need to be re-specified if you switch
between modules.
DIGITAL PROCESSING 1
TRUNCATE
(Set SampleStart/End)
Truncation shortens a voice’s length by trimming off parts of the beginning and/
or end.
Applications:
Cut off unneeded portions of a voice to conserve memory. Change
instrument characteristics (i.e. remove the attack from a plucked string note). Cut off
long decay (i.e., simulate noise-gated reverb effect on drums). Use to isolate a particular
section of a sample.
1. Activate
DIGITAL PROCESSING 1
.
2. Use the arrow keys to move the cursor under either the Start or End point. The display
will show these as:
Tr:Start End
XXXXXXX XXXXXXX
3. The seven digits under Start indicate, in number of sample points, how much is being
cut off the start of the voice. The seven digits under End indicate, in number of sample
points, how much is being cut off the end of the voice. Select the parameter to be adjusted
with the cursor buttons. Adjust the coarse value with the data slider and fine value with
the increment and decrement keys, or enter a seven-digit number. The minimum voice
size is 34 samples.
Example: Adjusting these sliders so that the bottom line indicates Trun Start 0039000
cuts one second off the beginning of the sample at the highest sample rate.
DIGITAL PROCESSING
Truncate
■
Make a copy of the
preset if you wish to
save your original
sample un-edited.
■
Each side of a Ste-
reo Voice must be
truncated separately!
Truncate the primary
voice, then write
down the truncation
points and truncate
the secondary voice
so that it exactly
matches the primary.
This will preserve the
stereo image.
