11 - TRUNCATE START and END of SAMPLE
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. With the module active, assign the Current Voice (see GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 2).
Note: Truncation works on only one Voice at a time. If the Current Voice contains more
than one Voice, the first Voice listed in the display will be truncated.
2. After assigning the Current Voice (the ENTER LED will be off), key in 11. The display
says:
Trun Start 000000
Trun End 000000
...and the ENTER light will flash.
Hint:
It is good practice to move sliders A and B all the way down, and sliders C and D
all the way up, before truncating. This puts them in their “no truncation” positions.
3. The six digits in the upper display line indicate, in samples, how much is being cut off the
start of the Voice. Slider A gives coarse control over the start truncation, Slider B fine
control. Moving the sliders upwards increases the amount of truncation. Example:
Adjusting these sliders so that the bottom line indicates Trun Start 027500 cuts one
second off the beginning of the sample (see
Fig. VDEF-1).
