120 SAMPLE TRANSLATOR
Deactivating Detune With some samples, changes made to the “Start Loop” point
cause Detune to be deactivated:
The Detune parameter will still be shown in the Waveset editor, but it will act as Fine
Pitch.
These Sounds cannot be converted in SO or DO:
“Loop Type”
This parameter allows you to change the loop type. Even though S Series uses only the
first loop, the others can be modified for use with a sampler. Select one of the eight loops
by pressing the “Loop nr:(x)” command the required number of times.
Type 0:
“Loop Off”. The loop is not played, and therefore the sample has no
sustain phase, and will terminate rapidly. This type of loop is used in
percussive samples that fade out very quickly.
Type 1: The loop is played only in a forwards direction, as in this example:
Loop
Start Loop
End
Type 2: The loop is played forwards and backwards again, as shown by this
diagram:
Loop
Start Loop
End
Although this loop type is not used by the S Series, it can be transmitted
to samplers or other sample editors.
“Note range” (cannot be modified)
This shows the keyboard range to which the sample has been assigned. As the keyboard
can play all assigned samples when you are in the Info About display, if the sample
whose parameters are being modified is played, a line will appear beneath this range of
notes*:
If the sample has not yet been assigned, an “Unassigned” message will appear in place of
these notes.
* The line appears only if
you are playing from the
keyboard (Local) or from
Common.
