PSR-2700 Digital Sampling

■Editing Samples

The following functions provide a range of useful sample editing capabilities.

NOTES

• If the sample data cannot be edited the following messages will ap-

pear on the LCD display: “No Wave Data” if there is no data in the

pad; “Protected Voice” is the data is protected and cannot be edited

by the PSR-2700.

Press the [PITCH] button or any other function button — the

[VOICE#] button, for example — to exit from the pitch function.

ZHold [CLEAR] and Select the Voice Or a Pad......................................................................................

While holding the [CLEAR] button press the [VOICE #] button if you

want to clear the entire voice, or the SAMPLE PAD you want to clear if

you only want to clear one pad. The [CLEAR] button, pad indicator if a

pad was selected, and ARE YOU SURE? indicators will flash and the “Are

you sure?” prompt will also sound.

VOICE #

CLEAR

The contents of an entire sampled voice (four pads) or individual SAMPLE PADS can be completely cleared

(erased) as follows:

XClear the Voice or Pad ...........................................................................................................................

Press the [YES] button to clear the current sample voice or selected

pad, or the [NO] button to cancel the clear operation.

NOTES

• In some cases “SQUEEZING XXX%” will appear on the display while

the PSR-2700 processes the sampled data during the clear process.

“XXXXKByteFree” will then appear, indicating the amount of RAM

remaining after the data has been processed.

• When a sample pad is cleared, the mapping applied to that pad is also

cleared and the default mapping will be restored.

PITCH

The pitch of each SAMPLE PAD can be adjusted over approximately a ±50-cent range (100 cents total —

approximately one semitone). This is a convenient way to tune samples to match the music in which they will be

used.

● Tuning the Samples

XSelect the Pitch.......................................................................................................................................

Use the [+] and [–] buttons, the number buttons, or the data dial to set

the pitch as required. The pitch range is from “–10” through “0” to “+10”. A

setting of “0” produces normal pitch. Each increment raises (+) or lowers (–

) the pitch by approximately 5 cents. You can play the pads while tuning to

check the sound.

The normal tuning value can be recalled instantly by pressing the [+]

and [–] buttons at the same time.
