73 Erase the sample Want to erase a sample and start from scratch? Easy! Simultaneously hold down the SAMPLING/STOP button and press the appropriate Sample Pad (the one containing the sample you wish to erase). After about three seconds, the sample data is erased. When the sampled voice is selected for playing (Tip 75), you cannot erase the sample. 74 Loops and One Shots The DJX-II has two different kinds of Sample Pads - One Shot and Loop - that let you play back the samples two different ways. If you record a sample to a One Shot Pad, that sample plays back once and then stops - hence the name, "One Shot." If you record a sample to a Loop Pad, that sample plays back repeatedly (or "loops") - until you stop it by pressing the same Pad again. The One Shot Pads are useful for little chunks of audio - such as sound effects, hits (like cymbal crashes, orchestra hits, etc.), and voice sound bites - that you don't intend to loop. The Loop Pads are for audio that you want to repeat, especially for rhythmic effect - such as drum and percussion rhythms and arpeggiator phrases. Loop Pads are also good for sustaining sounds that you want to continue indefinitely. Loop One Shot Sample Sample 54
