Yamaha A3000 Owner's Manual - Page 118

SAMPLE Function Knob 5 >ADD • Push this knob to add the selected sample to the selected sample bank. • It is not possible to add a sample that is already assigned to a different sample bank or to a program. If you select a sample that is already assigned, therefore, the A3000 will display a Duplicate & Add? prompt screen - giving you a chance to generate a new copy of the sample for inclusion into the selected bank. The Duplicate & Add? screen also shows the default name for the new sample, which is equivalent to original name + "*". If you wish to change the name, press Knob 2 or 3 to proceed to the name-editing screen. When you are ready to proceed, press Knob 5 (>YES) to generate the duplicate sample and add it to the selected sample bank. Note that the A3000 does not create another copy of the waveform data when "duplicating" the sample. Instead, both samples access the same waveform memory area. This means that the duplication does not consume any additional waveform memory. 116 Chapter 4 PLAY Mode
