Phase 3:
PLAYBACK
Putting It All Together & Making Music
Your individual samples are the basic “building blocks” used by the A5000 and A4000 to create musical
sound. After your samples have been recorded and edited there are still a few steps you’ll need to take
before you can start making music.
1.
Programs
Since the A5000/A4000 does not directly play individual samples, your samples need to be assigned to
a “Program” which can be played from your keyboard, computer, or other MIDI controller. A Program
can consist of a single sample played over the entire range of your keyboard or controller, or a number
of samples “mapped” to different key ranges. Another program feature offered by the A5000/A4000 is
the "Multi" mode in which different programs can be assigned up to 32 "parts" on the A5000 or up to
16 parts on the A4000, which can be played simultaneously via separate MIDI channels.
Step-by-Step procedure on page 55.
2.
Effects
The extensive range of top-quality effects provided by the A5000/A4000 can be used to add the finish-
ing touches to your sound. Both models offer multiple effect stages with versatile connection varia-
tions. The A5000 features six high-performance effect stages, and the A4000 has three. Both samplers
offer a selection of 46 top-quality effects ranging from basic reverb, delay, and modulation effects to
much more sophisticated, innovative effects as well as combinations.

3.
Controller Functions
Another basic but important step in setting up for playback is assigning controller functions. Your key-
board’s modulation wheel, for example, can be assigned to a wide range of parameters other than sim-
ple modulation. Effective use of MIDI controllers can give you extraordinary realtime expression
control.
