Recording a sound to a pad—Sampling

Making settings in the Sampling screen

The Sampling screen appears in step 3 of “Sampling an external sound” (p. 56) or
step 2 of “Sampling from a CD audio clip collection inserted in the CDX-1” (p. 57).
As necessary, make settings for the various items in the Sampling screen to modify
the sampling settings.

Selecting the audio quality and sampling time
appropriate for the material—Data Type

You can set the

data type

each time you sample. This allows you to select the audio

quality and recording time appropriate for the audio material you are sampling.

fig.31-07a

1. Make sure that the cursor is located at the

“Data Type” line.

2. Turn the TIME/VALUE dial to select the data type.

Data Type

HIGH:

Of the four types, this allows the highest-quality recording.

STANDRD:

This type maintains high quality, while allowing longer
recording time than “HIGH.” Normally you should select this
type.

LONG1:

This type allows longer recording than “STANDARD.” It is
suitable for recording live performances.

LONG2:

This allows the longest recording time of the four types.

For multitrack recording, you
will select the data type when
you format the CD-RW disc
(p. 110).

Data type and sampling time

If you limit your selection to one data type, the available sampling time will be as
follows.

* The above sampling times are approximations for when only one data type is used. The data type

can be set separately when recording each sample, and the sampling time will be different if
different data types coexist.
