PSR-2700 Digital Sampling The PSR-2700 features a built-in digital voice sampling system that lets you digitally record any sounds from a microphone or line-level source and play those sounds via the four SAMPLE PADS and/or the keyboard. The Digital Sampling system can record a maximum of 6 seconds of sound per sample pad, up to a total of 60 seconds. A sampled "voice" is a complete set of data for the four SAMPLE PADS. CAUTION • Never interrupt the PSR-2700 power supply - either by unplugging the power cord or by turning the power switch off - during sampling, during a clear operation, while the PSR-2700 is processing sampled data (i.e. while "Squeezing" appears on the display), or while loading sampled voices from disk. Doing so will result in the loss of all data in the PSR-2700 wave RAM!

Never interrupt the PSR-2700 power supply - either by unplug-
ging the power cord or by turning the power switch off - during
sampling, during a clear operation, while the PSR-2700 is
processing sampled data (i.e. while “Squeezing” appears on the
display), or while loading sampled voices from disk. Doing so will
result in the loss of all data in the PSR-2700 wave RAM!

To use the Digital Sampler you’ll need to connect the source you intend
to use to either the rear-panel
SAMPLE IN LINE
or
MIC
jack. If you’ll be
recording via a microphone, plug the microphone into the
SAMPLE IN
MIC
jack. If you’ll be recording from a line-level source such as a cassette
player or other audio playback device, plug the player’s line output into the
SAMPLE IN LINE
jack. If your audio playback device has RCA pin-jack
type outputs you’ll need to acquire a cable or connector converter that al-
lows connection to the PSR-2700’s 1/4-inch mono phone jack.
