28 – 662 Using samplers and creating loops
5. If the sampler is connected via SCSI, pull down the SCSI Unit pop-up
and select the instrument you want to communicate with.
If the instrument can’t be found on this menu, there is something wrong with your SCSI con-
nection. Go back and check the instructions in the section “SCSI connections” on page 31.
The SCSI Unit pop-up
If you ever change the SCSI ID for the sampler, you need to update the pre-
set. Otherwise, sampler communication won’t work.
6. If the sampler is connected via MIDI, use the MIDI input and output that
the instrument is connected to from the MIDI pop-ups and set the SysEx
ID (System Exclusive ID number) to the same number as that of the instru-
ment.
This setting is very important. If the two numbers don’t correspond, transfers won’t work. To
find out how to check what SysEx ID your sampler is set to, consult its operation manual.
A few samplers that communicate via SCSI will use the SysEx ID for SCSI
purposes as well. See your sampler documentation for details.
Creating a preset
Once all settings are done, you must convert them to a preset before you
can continue:
1. Click on the Presets tab.
2. Type in a name in the field to the right.
Use a name that can be used to identify this particular sampler (if you have several).
3. Click the Add button to add the preset to the list.
If you have more samplers, you can now go back to the Settings tab,
make settings for the next instrument, and create a preset for that.
