Samples and Programs Memory Program 001 Effect = Reverb Program 002 Effect = Delay Sample A Piano waveform Key range: C-2 to G8 Sample B Bass waveform Key range: C2 to C4 On Off Off Off Off On Off Off Sample C Sax waveform Key range: C4 to B5 Off Off On Off Selection of Program 1 causes the A3000 to play a piano sound (Sample A) each time any key on the keyboard is hit. (Note that the key range is set from C-2 to G8, covering the entire keyboard.) A reverb effect is applied to the sound. Program 2 causes the A3000 to produce a bass sound (Sample B) over keyboard range C2 to C4, and a sax sound (Sample C) over keyboard range C4 to B5. Both sounds are played through a delay effect. Notice that in the case of Program 2, key C4 plays out both samples at the same time. Assume, then, that you want to remove this overlap. One way to do this would be to change Sample B's key range to "C2 to B3." The problem with this approach is that it changes the sample's own parameters, and will therefore affect all programs in which the sample is used. Another way to resolve the problem, then, is to use the "easy edit" feature to adjust the range for Program 2 only, while leaving the sample's own parameter data unchanged. The following illustration shows the idea.
