About the COMMANDS PROCESS [COMMAND/EXIT] Button → Knob 1 to highlight display line 3 → Press Knob 2 The PROCESS commands include sample normalization, reverse, fade, loop crossfade, and more. [Operation] 1. Select the Process Type to be applied to the sample. 2. Select the sample to be processed. 3. Set other parameters as required. 4. Press Knob 1 (EXEC) or Knob 5 (EXEC&CONT), and the process confirmation display will appear. Press Knob 5 (YES) to execute the process operation. • The content of this display will vary according to the selected Process Type. • If Knob 1 (EXEC) is used to execute the command, the display previous to the command menu will be recalled after execution has finished. If Knob 5 (EXEC&CONT) is used to execute the command, the process display will be retained so you can continue and perform further process operations. Cursor q (the same for all Process Types) Cursor q Turn action Press action Knob 1 Cursor EXEC Knob 2 Process Type - Knob 3 - - Knob 4 - - Knob 5 Sample EXEC&CONT Knob 1 [ Turn] Cursor Positions the cursor. The cursor cannot be moved when the Reverse Process Type is selected. [ Press] EXEC Press this knob to call the process confirmation display. Press Knob 5 (YES) to actually execute the process operation. Knob 2 [ Turn] Process Type Specifies the type of processing to be applied to the sample. [Range] Normalize, Reverse, Fade, LoopXfade • Normalize ... The peak level of the selected sample is detected, and the overall level of the waveform is adjusted so that the peak level is just below clipping (i.e. the level is maximized). The wave data can also be deliberately clipped or the plus or minus sides of the waveform can be individually adjusted to change the sound as required. Normalize • Reverse ... This command reverses the waveform with respect to time, so that the sound is reversed. Reverse • The command reverses the entire waveform. Operation is not restricted to the area between the start and end addresses. • When Reverse is executed, the wave start and end addresses are automatically adjusted so that the wave sounds over the same region. The same applies to the loop start and end addresses: they are automatically adjustyed so that the loop plays over the same region. • Fade ... Applies a gradual fade-in from the wave start address or fade-out to the wave end address. • LoopXfade ... produces a smooth transition at the loop crossover point. Knob 5 [ Turn] Sample Selects the sample to be processed. [Range] All samples in memory. [ Press] EXEC&CONT Press this knob to call the process confirmation display. Press Knob 5 (YES) to actually execute the process operation.
