Connecting the sources and setting the levels
Before starting to record, prepare the sources to be sampled.
Connecting the source and accessing Sampling
1 With the MASTER VOLUME control set to zero, connect the source to be
sampled (for example, a microphone or a CD player) to the relevant audio
input(s) on the rear of the instrument. When the source has been connected,
move the MASTER VOLUME control to a position other than zero.
2 Go to the Global > Audio & Video > Audio In page to set the signal routing for
the input source, and turn the phantom power on in case a condenser micro-
phone has been connected.
3 Press the SOUND button to access Sound mode, then press the RECORD
button to access Sampling mode.
4 Go to the Sample > Record page.
Enabling the source and adjusting the levels
1 Use the Source pop-up menu to choose the input source.
2 If you are recording from the line inputs, use the Record Mode pop-up menu
to choose one or both stereo channels.
3 Adjust the source’s volume. If you are recording with a microphone, use the
MIC > GAIN knob of the back of the instrument. If you are sampling from a
line source (like a CD player or another instrument), set the source’s own
output level. If possible, set the output level of the source to be sampled to
the maximum.
