Using Samples & Multisamples
Assigning a Multisample to PCM Patch
To change the Multisample assigned to a PCM Patch:
1. Open the Control Panel for the PCM Patch.
2. Drag a Multisample from the Catalog onto the Multisample slot in the
Control Panel.
That’s it! The new Multisample will be assigned to the PCM Patch.
NOTE: Only Patches designed to play PCM can use Multisamples. This includes all
of the Patches in the Korg/Patches/PCM folder, for instance.
Editing a Multisample
To edit a Multisample:
1. Open the Control Panel for the PCM Patch containing the Multisample.
2. Double-click on the name of any Multisample on the Control Panel.
The Multisample Edit window will open, allowing you to edit the selected
Multisample.
Within the Multisample Edit window, you can change sample key ranges, add and
delete samples, and change Patch offset values, such as tuning, decay, volume, pan,
and
fi lter cutoff.
Multisample edits are stored within the Multi
All edits to a Multisample are stored within the Multi. If you are editing a
Multisample to use in a speci
fi c Multi, there’s no need to save the Multisample as a
separate fi le to disk; just save the Multi, and you’re done.
This also means that you don’t have to worry about keeping track of which Multis
use which Multisamples. Once you add a Multisample to a Multi, its parameters
are copied into the Multi, and are separated from the Multisample
fi le on the disk.
Any changes to the Multisample fi le on disk will not affect existing Multis.
If you like, you can still store the edited Multisample as a separate fi le to disk. For
details, see “Using the Zoom In and Zoom Out buttons,” on page 40.

things:
1. Click in the Key Range’s box above the keyboard graphic.
