[ Press] ZOOM IN
Press this knob to expand the waveform display. This can
be repeated until maximum magnification is reached.
Knob 3
[ Turn] Loop End Address
Sets the end point (loop-back point) of the loop.
Note that actual loop handling depends on the loop-mode
setting.
[Range] Loop Start Address — End of wave data.
The range of this parameter changes according
to the setting of the End Type parameter (page
124).
• End Type = Address ... Sets the loop end address
(this is the normal function).
• End Type = Length ...
Specifies the actual loop
length (Loop End Address - Loop Start Address).
• End Type = Time ... Specifies the actual loop time
in seconds (From the Loop Start Address to
the Loop End Address at the original pitch of
the sample).
• End Type = Beat ... Specifies the playback time
(Loop Start Address to Loop End Address at
the original pitch of the sample) in beats
based on the Loop Tempo setting.
[ Press] ZOOM OUT
Reduces the waveform display. This can be repeated until
the minimum magnification level is reached.
Knob 5
[ Turn] Shortcut Command
Positions the cursor within the pop-up window to select
one of the available shortcut commands.
[Range] LOOP MONITOR, NORM..., VIEW, E-CATCH
(See "Cursor
w Shortcut Commands" for
details on the commands)
[ Press] EXECUTE
Executes the shortcut command at the current cursor
position.
• LOOP MONITOR
Push this knob to monitor the sound of the loop. This feature lets
you hear how the sound of the loop changes as you edit the loop
addresses.
The NORM..., VIEW, and E-CATCH commands are the same as
those described for Cursor
q (page 121).
Knob 1
Same function as Cursor q (page 120).
Knob 2
[ Turn] Auto
Specifies the auto-addressing function to be used for
wave editing (Length Lock, Auto Zero, or Auto Snap).
[Range] LengLock, Zero, Snap
• LengLock (Length Lock)
This option lets you lock in the waveform’s play length (the distance
between the wave start and wave end addresses) and loop length
(the distance between the loop-start and loop-end addresses).
You enable this option by setting it to lock. If you do this, any change
you make to any of these addresses will generate an equal change
in the corresponding address — so that you can shift the playback
or loop position along the waveform while maintaining constant play-
back length and loop length.
You will want to use this feature, for example, when you need to
keep the playback or loop length at some fixed value for timing pur-
poses.
• Zero (Automatic Zeroing)
This option is another convenient feature for address editing. If you
enable this option, any address change you make will be forced to
the nearest zero-point — the address will jump from zero point to
zero point as you turn the editing knob. If you disable this option,
then you can change addresses continuously over the entire wave-
form.
