Sampling

This function lets you record your own sounds via a microphone or line source to be played from the key-

board.

During use, sampled sounds are kept in the internal wave RAM memory. The PSR-9000 comes with a 1-

megabyte wave memory which can be expanded up to a maximum of 65 megabytes by installing optional

SIMM memory modules — see page 160 for details. Sampled wave data can be saved to floppy or hard

disk. Wave files in standard WAV or AIFF format produced using other equipment can also be used by the

PSR-9000.

Use the same operation as in “Vocal Harmony” on pages 32 and 68.

The notes and cautions contained on page 68 in “Vocal Harmony” also apply to Sam-

pling.

What is sampling ?

Technically, sampling is making a digital recording of a sound. The sound could be

your voice or an acoustic instrument (taken from a microphone), or a recorded sound

(from a CD or cassette player). Once it is recorded, the resulting “sample” can be

played at various pitches from a keyboard.

■

Auto Trigger Level

Actually, the PSR-9000 does not start sampling immediately when the

[START]

LCD

button is pressed (in step #11 on page 41). Once the

[START]

LCD button is pressed,

the PSR-9000 waits for a signal of a suitable level (set by the trigger level). When it

hears such a signal, it starts sampling.

The Trigger Level can be set in step #10 on page 40.

The higher the trigger level, the louder the signal must be to start (trigger) sampling.
