Editing a Wave

You can edit a wave in various ways, such as normalizing 

its volume or deleting unwanted portions.

Specifying a Wave’s Start and End 

(WAVE START/END)

If a sampled wave has unwanted sound or blank space at 

its beginning or end, you can specify the start and end of 

the portion that will actually be sounded, thus omitting 

the unwanted regions.

1. 

In the KIT PAD screen, select the wave that you 

want to edit (p. 44).

2. 

Choose QUICK MENU

   

WAVE START/END.

3. 

Adjust the region of the wave that you want to 

be heard (p. 31).

4. 

Press the [ENTER] button.

The setting will be saved, and you’ll be returned to the 

KIT PAD screen.

Normalizing a Wave’s Volume 

(WAVE NORMALIZE)

This operation boosts the volume of a wave as far as 

possible without causing it to distort. You may wish to 

use this if the volume of a sampled wave is not loud 

enough.

1. 

In the KIT PAD screen, select the wave that you 

want to edit (p. 44).

2. 

Choose QUICK MENU   WAVE NORMALIZE.
