Sample Mode
Steps for Sampling 2
(Re-sampling from the internal tone
generator/memory)
You can re-sample a previously recorded sample or a
preset wave, as well as a song/pattern phrase.
When re-sampling the previously recorded sample, you
must first edit it in the Sample Edit mode, and use it as an
element/wave for an internal voice in the Voice Edit mode
(page 76), then store the internal voice in memory.
1 In the Voice Play mode, select a voice that you want
to sample. Or in the case when you sample a
song/pattern phrase, first perform the necessary
operations to prepare the phrase for playback (for
example, selecting a performance for song/pattern or
pattern number).
Example 1:
When sampling a voice (select the voice number in the
Voice Play mode)
Example 2:
When sampling a pattern (select a pattern number in the
Pattern Play mode, and select a performance for the pattern
in the Performance Play mode)
2 Enter the Sample Play mode, and press [F8] (REC)
to enter the Sample Record mode.
3 Set desired record mode and select “Internal” for the
Source.
4 Set the trigger method in the Trigger parameter.
When sampling a voice that you play on the
keyboard, select “key,” or when sampling a
song/pattern phrase, select “seq.”
5 Confirm the available sampling time (recording time)
in the Length parameter. (If necessary,) set the
length of the sampling.
For setting the destination sample bank/number, (even
when FLS is selected for the sample bank in the Sample
Play mode) an empty DRAM sample number is
automatically selected. Therefore it is not necessary to
select a sample number.

6 Press [F8] (STANDBY) to engage sampling standby
status, and “Waiting...” will be displayed in the
screen.
7 Start sampling using the trigger method specified in
step 4 above.
When “key” is selected:
Press any key on the keyboard to begin sampling.
When “seq” is selected:
Press the sequencer [PLAY] key to begin sampling.
When sampling is underway, “Now Recording...” is
displayed.
8 Press [F8] (STOP) to stop sampling. The sampled
bank/number will be displayed.
If the set length of the sample is reached before you
press [F8] (STOP), sampling will automatically stop.
9 Press [EXIT] to return to the Sample Play mode and
you can audition the newly recorded sample.
) To execute another sampling, repeat the above steps
1~9.
You can edit the sampled data using the sample edit
function in the Sample Edit mode and the copy function
in the Sample Job mode. Also, in the Voice Edit mode
(page 76) you can use the sampled data as an
element/wave in creating your original voice.
Furthermore, you can assign the sampled data to each
key (keymap function on page 72) and play them on the
keyboard.
Samples are recorded into the DRAM of the internal
memory. However, the recorded samples can be
transferred to FLS (optional Flash Memory Board
EXFLM1; if it is properly installed) using the Copy
Sample function in the Sample Job mode. Once the
recorded or edited samples are transferred to the
EXFLM1, the samples can be used the same as preset
waves (the data is not erased when the power is turned
off).
When the power is turned off, the data in the
internal memory is erased. Remember to save
important sample data to floppy disk or an external
storage device (page 259).
