Playing the Audio Link Multi Pads
You can play the Multi Pad to which the audio file is assigned by selecting them in the User or USB tab of the
Multi Pad Bank Selection display. Although you can play them via the same operations as the Multi Pad
which has no links with audio files, note the following limitations.
Make sure to connect the USB flash drive including the corresponding audio files.
Automatic repeat playback is not available.
Only one Pad can be played back at once.
Chord Match cannot be applied.
The USB Audio function cannot be used while playing Audio Link Multi Pads.
NOTE Audio files (WAV) take a slightly longer time than MIDI files to load.
NOTE When the link to the audio file is cut (for example, when the USB flash drive which includes the corresponding audio file is not connected, etc.), a “?” icon is
shown for that Pad in the “Audio Link Multi Pad” display.
To change the Link setting:
Select the desired Audio Link Multi Pad, and then carry out the same operations as in steps 3 to 10.
