CL4 sample

Recording to the sequencer

Now we will record the sample for the CL4 track on the sequencer.
The sample for the CL4 track will be looped over 32 quarter-note beats (eight mea-
sures), and will sound for four beats from the beginning of measure 3. (See diagram
below.)

Begin recording using the same procedure as for the CL1 track, and at the first beat
of the third measure (MEASURE display 003:1), press and hold the CL4 pad. Con-
tinue holding it for four beats, and release it immediately before 004:1.

2.4.7 Creating the FREE tracks

Later, we will record all of the FREE tracks into the sequencer. First, let’s sample the
sounds for the FREE tracks 1–4, and modify the sounds.

NOTE:
Since FREE tracks do not loop, they do not have a loop length setting as the LOOP tracks
and COMPOSED LOOP tracks do.

Sampling

Using the same procedure as for LOOP 1, we will sample the following sources from
the included audio CD to FREE tracks 1–4.

FREE 1 track ...... Track 64-1: *Japaneez Rev
FREE 2 track ...... Track 58-10: *Dance Hall
FREE 3 track ...... Track 9-1:

Hooper Looper A-88 bpm

FREE 4 track ...... Track 5-8:

Dry Relaxed Loop-97 bpm

The sampling procedure is the same as described on page 50 of the preceding sec-
tion, “Building Your Own Song.”

Set the sampling grade to “22K 8BIT MONO L.”

Modifying the sound

Set the following parameters.
* For the samples of FREE tracks 1–4, we will change parameter settings during the
song to switch between two types of sound, but first we will create the settings for
sound type A which will be used in sections A/B/E of the song.
