Sampling5. In the EXT SOURCE section of the panel, use LEVEL knobto adjust the input level of the external source.* If you’re using DIGITAL IN, this adjustment is not necessary.fig.14-002Dividing a Sample DuringSampling1. During sampling, press [F8 (Divide)].The sample will be divided at the point where you pressed thebutton, and the subsequent material will be sampled as asample of the next number.* If the volume of the external source is too high, the PEAK indicatorwill light. If this occurs, turn down the LEVEL knob until the PEAKindicator no longer lights.* If the level of the sound to be sampled is too high, the word “CLIP”will appear at the right of the level meter in the screen.* Using a connection cable that contains a resistor can cause the soundlevel to be low. Use a connection cable that does not contain a resistor.6. Press [F8 (Start)] to begin sampling.* When sampling in mono, you can divide the material into a maximumof 256 samples. When sampling in stereo, you can divide the materialinto a maximum of 128 samples (L/R total 256 samples).Sampling timeThe Fantom-X contains 32 MB of memory, which allows about 6minutes of mono or about 3 minutes of stereo sampling. If youwant to sample for a longer time than this, you must installseparately sold memory (DIMM) (p. 244, p. 246).7. If Stop Trigger is set to MANUAL, press [F7 (Stop)] to stopsampling.The Sample Edit (p. 148) screen will appear.* If you want to edit the sample, refer to p. 146.fig.14-007_50When you finish sampling, the sample will automatically beadded to the sample list. Press [SAMPLE LIST] to view thesample list.Samples you record will be lost when you turn off thepower. If you want to keep your sample, press [WRITE] to saveit (p. 159). Samples shown as “NEW” in the sample list have notyet been saved.fig.14-008_508. Press [EXIT] to go back to where you were before youentered the Sampling screen.144
