Press the EXECUTE LCD button to normalize the selected wave. No change will occur if the selected wave already uses the full range of digital values. 5: VOLUME/TUNE The VOLUME LCD dials set the volume of the selected wave. The TUNE COARSE and FINE LCD dials can be used to tune the selected wave: COARSE tunes in semitone increments over a -63 ... +63 range, and FINE tunes in 1-cent increments over a -50 ... +50 range. When the FIXED PITCH parameter is turned OFF, the pitch of wave playback will be correspond to keyboard pitch. When ON, the playback pitch will remain the same (corresponding to the pitch of the C3 key) regardless of which key is pressed. q TUNING BY TEMPO The TUNING BY TEMPO LCD button accesses param- eters that can be used to "tune" the wave to fit a specified playback tempo. In other words, the wave is stretched (tuned down) or compressed (tuned up) so that it plays back over the specified number of measures at the specified time signature and tempo. This capability is particularly useful when the sample is a phrase rather than a simple sound. The wave will only play back at the specified tempo, however, when played at its original pitch (usually the pitch played by the C3 key). Use the BEAT LCD dials to specify the number of beats per measure, the UNIT LCD dials to specify the number of measures the wave should play over, and the DESIRED TEMPO LCD dials to specify the tempo at which the wave should play. When done, press the SET LCD button to actually set the wave tempo, or CANCEL to cancel the operation and return to the PARAMETER display. Please note that the sound of the wave will not change until the SET LCD button is pressed (i.e. there is no pre-listen capability while setting up the parameters). Once the SET LCD button has been pressed, the amount of tuning applied is reflected in the TUNE COARSE and FINE parameters. • When a LOOP is selected the entire loop is tuned, but the portion of the loop between the LOOP START and LOOP END points is adjusted to fit the specified number of measures. 95
