Pressing takes you to the last of the three sample pages in PROGRAM EDIT. Here
you may set the velocity start time for the sample(s) assigned to the currently selected
keygroup. The screen display looks like this:
This page allows you to determine the way in which velocity affects the playback starting
point for each sample in a keygroup. This parameter is variable from +9999 to -9999.
The higher the positive number, the earlier in the sample playback will start relative to the
key velocity (i.e. a high key velocity will start playback earlier in the sample). A negative
number has the opposite effect (a high key velocity will start playback later in the sample
than a low key velocity). This effect is particularly useful for simulating percussion
instruments (try it with a bass drum). It can also be very effective with such instruments as
a heavily bowed cello - by setting a high positive value, hard keystrokes will play the
aggressive bowing whilst soft keystrokes will not. The same could be done with overblown
saxes or flutes. Something similar could be done with synth bass samples or other synth
noises that have a pronounced filter sweep attack.
No other functions are available in this page.
In all of the sample pages, you may select between them via the three SMP soft keys. To
return to the keygroup screen to access the other keygroup functions, press and to
return to the main PROGRAM EDIT screen to access the ‘global’ program functions, press
.
