Getting Ready for Sampling
If the volume of the audio input is too low, the instrument cannot
sample the sound.
• When the sound is too low even though the volume of the
external device connected to the [AUX IN] jack is set to
maximum, adjust the “AuxInVol” in the Function Settings
(page 66, Function 068). However, if you increase the vol-
ume to more than 50, the sound may be distorted.
• When the audio input is too low even though the play-
back volume on the computer or smart device is set to
maximum, adjust the “USBInVol” in the Function Settings
(page 66, Function 069).
The volume from the speakers has no effect on sampling
results.

• The sampling rate is 44.1 kHz, 16-bit, stereo.
• The samples can also be saved to a USB flash drive (page

The sampling operation will overwrite and erase previ-
ously existing samples. Save important data you want to
keep to a USB flash drive (page 45).
• If you want to use the Melody Suppressor (page 54)
when sampling, be sure to set it before entering sampling
mode.
• If you want to automatically cut the silent sections at the
beginning and end of sampling, set “BlankCut” in the
Function Settings (page 64, Function 048) to “ON.”
To cancel sampling, exit Quick Sampling mode by pressing
the [CAPTURE] button again.
To switch to a different pad, either press a different pad or
press the [EXIT] button.
