Using the keyboard buttons to play the samples

You can use the keyboard buttons to play the sample you’ve selected using sample pads or the [GRANULAR] pad, as notes in a scale.

You can also use the keyboard buttons to play each of the samples you’ve sampled using step sampling or split using the chop function.

MEMO

You can’t play the samples you’ve sampled using step sampling or the samples you’ve split using the chop function as notes in a scale.

For details, refer to “Creating equally-divided samples (step sampling)” and “Chop function (Chop)”.

  1. Press sample pad or the [GRANULAR] pad.
  2. Press the [KYBD] button.
  3. The [KYBD] button lights up, and the step buttons switch to keyboard buttons.
  4. Press the keyboard buttons to play the samples.
  5. To stop using the buttons as keyboard buttons, press the [KYBD] button.
  6. The [KYBD] button goes dark, and the keyboard buttons switch back to step buttons.

MEMO

In polyphonic mode, you can trigger samples as chords, or play back the same samples that you split using the chop function at the same time.

For details on polyphonic mode, refer to “Layering and triggering the same sample (polyphonic)”.
