RECORD MODE
Pressing SAMPLE enters the record or ‘sampling’ mode. The first screen you see is the
RECORD SETUP page where you may set certain parameters related to recording.
This shows that you have named (or selected for over-writing) a sample called STRING C4. You
may select another sample for recording over if you wish (assuming they exist, of course!) by
moving the cursor to the sample name field and scrolling through the available samples. You
may also rename or copy the sample in the usual way by pressing NAME - you will receive this
prompt:
The first character of the name will be highlighted. Use the CURSOR keys to move within the
name field and the DATA wheel to enter a suitable name of up to 12 characters.
As soon as you create a new, unique name, you will see displayed under the sample
name:
Finally, to finish naming, press ENT/PLAY.

that, any editing you do will be done in stereo unless you specifically switch
back to mono.
To the right of this parameter is another (shown LEFT in the above example).
This allows you to select which of the channels will initiate the recording when
STEREO is selected and you are using INPUT LEVEL to start recording (see
below - . When MONO is selected, this field defaults to LEFT but, when
STEREO is selected you may set which input channel you want to trigger
recording.
