Monitoring and Monitor Level
To the left on the Hardware Interface are two buttons and one knob for monitoring the signals on the Sampling In-
puts:
D Click the Monitor button to activate monitoring of the signals present at the Sampling Inputs.
Monitoring will always be active, regardless of if you sample or not.
D Click the Auto button to activate monitoring only during sampling.
Monitoring will only be active during the actual sampling. When you don’t sample, monitoring will be off.
D Turn the Monitor knob to adjust the monitor signal level.
! The Monitor Level knob does not affect the level of the audio to be sampled - only the monitored signal.

Sampling procedure
Sampling can be made in two basic ways:
• Sampling “assigned samples” directly into a device by clicking, or clicking and holding the Sample button on
the device’s panel.
• Sampling “unassigned samples” that are not (yet) assigned to any sampler device.
Regardless of which method you use to sample, the sample rate will be according to your current audio hardware set-
tings (see “Audio settings”).
Sampling into a device (NN-XT, NN19, Redrum, Kong)
1. Make sure you have made the necessary connections and set the levels according to the descriptions in “Set-
ting up for sampling”.
2. Click the Sample button on the device.
