ESSENTIAL PROCEDURES 4. Assign Your Samples Use Knob 2 to highlight a sample, then use Knob 4 to assign the selected sample to the currently selected program as required and specify it's receive channel. When "off" the sample is not assigned. When set to "=Smp" the sample is assigned to the "Sample Bank" receive channel (a "Sample Bank" is a group of samples which can be handled as a unit in many ways - see page 60 for details). On the A4000 you can also select MIDI channels "01" through "16," while on the A5000 (which has MIDI A and B inputs) you can select MIDI "A" input channels "A01" through "A16" and MIDI "B" input channels "B01" through "B16." On both models you can also select "Bch," which is the basic receive channel set by Knob 5 in the "PLAY-PgmSel" display. • From the "PLAY-SmpSel" display you can also use Knob 5 to rename, save, duplicate, delete, and create a new sample bank. See page 94 for details. 5. Play! Once your samples have been assigned to a program, you can go ahead and play the program from your keyboard, sequencer, or other controller.

Please take the time to look over the tabe of contents (page 8), and perhaps even the index (page 287) so you'll have an idea about how and where to look for any further information you might need.
