Using samplers and creating loops 28 – 663
Transmitting samples
1. If needed, open the sample in a Wave window and trim it to the desired
length.
Since samplers are RAM based, this may limit the amount of data you can transmit.
2. Add one or two loops as desired (see “Basic looping” on page 669).
3. Pull down the Sampling menu and select “Transmit…”.
4. Select the target sampler from the Target menu.
This menu lists all samplers for which you have created presets. The sampler will be on the
list regardless of whether it is turned on or connected properly or not, so this list is not a
verification that things have been set up properly.
5. If the protocol used for this sampler identifies samples by number, use the
“Sample number” setting to specify a “memory location” in the sampler
where you want to store the sample.
If another sample is already stored at that location, it will most likely be overwritten when
you transmit, so it might be a good idea to use the sampler's front panel controls to make
sure you have specified the number of an empty location.
6. If the sampler uses names and/or banks, click the Refresh button instead
to get a list of the current memory contents in the sampler. Then select a
bank and a sample location from the pop-up and list.
This is not always required. In many instruments, if nothing is specified, the sample will be
stored in a new memory location and no existing samples will be overwritten.
7. Click Transmit.
The sample is transmitted to the sampler. You can monitor the progress of the transmission
on the status bar at the bottom of the screen.
