Length can be adjusted. Samples are chromatically tuned, and has a pitch range of 4 octaves above
and 5 octaves below the original sample pitch. Loop mode can be set to Off, On, toggle, sustain,
off(unchopped) and on(unchopped).
In off and on modes, it will always use the sample chop point, if any.
In toggle mode, the looped sample playback will start, when you push and release a trigger button,
and stop when you push and release the same trigger button again.
In sustain mode, it will play the sampling back from the start point, until it reaches the second
chop point. Then it will loop back to the first chop point, and keep looping between these 2 points.
When importing a wav sampling with loop points set as cue points, these cue points are imported
to the first 2 chop points.
In off and on (unchopped) modes, the whole sampling will play back, ignoring any chop points.
It is possible to create chop points in the Tiny LD sample editor, and use these. Chops can be
detected by level peaks, by single wavecycles, and by dividing the sample length with a settable
number.
Chop points will also be imported from wav files, containing these as cue points.
In sampler Xfade mode, it is possible to smoothly crossfade between 2 samplings. You can select
sample A by the
Chop parameter on the OSC page, and sample B by the Chop2 parameter on the
SEL page. The numbers selected by these parameters refer to the 4 samples, that is selected on
the SMP page. A value of 1-64 will select a chop point in sample 1, a value of 65-128 will select a
chop point in sample 2, a value of 129-192 will select a chop point in sample 3, and a value of 193-
256 will select a chop point in sample 4. If no chop points exists in the selected sampling, the
sampling itself will be selected.
When you have 2 samples selected, you can use the Xfade parameter on the SEL page to crossfade
between these. The Xfade parameter can be modulated by any modulation source and morphed.
In chopped keyboard sample mode, the chops of the selected sampling, will be spread over the
MIDI keyboard range.
The first chop will be placed at C2. Each chop will take up one key, and will not be tuned by the
keyboard. Tuning is only possible, using the Tune, Fine and pitch modulation parameters.
On the next key, after the last chop, the first chop will be placed, and the rest of the chops will be
repeated over the rest of the keyboard range.
If you set the #Smp parameter to 2 or 4, the Chop parameter on the OSC page, will select sample
1, 2, 3 and 4, to be laid out on the keyboard. Chop modulation will also switch between the 4
samplings.
If you select a sampling, that has no chops, the root key of this sampling, will be laid out over the
entire keyboard range.
In noise generator mode, the oscillator puts out a noise waveform. Pitch and pw (intensity) can be
set and modulated.
