NN-XT SAMPLER

275

Sample Parameters

The Sample parameter area is found below the screen. They allow you to adjust pa-

rameters for one or several selected zones. Adjusting a parameter with multiple zones

selected, will set the parameter to the same value for all selected zones. Below fol-

lows a run-down of the various parameters:

Root Note and Tune

These parameters are described on page 270.

Sample Start and End

By turning the knobs you offset the start and end positions, so that they will play back

more or less of a samples’ waveform. Typical examples of use for this would be:

D Removing unwanted portions from samples.

This could be anything from noise to “dead air” at the beginning or end of a sam-

ple.

D To create variations out of a single sample.

These controls can be used to pick out any section of a recording for use as a

sample.

D Together with velocity sample start control.

You can for example increase Sample Start and then apply negative velocity mod-

ulation to Sample Start. Then, the harder you play the more you will hear of the at-

tack portion of the sound.

✪ If you hold down [Shift] when adjusting these parameters, the adjust-

ment is always in single frames (samples).

Loop Start and End

A sample, unlike the cycles of an oscillator for example, is a finite quantity. There is a

sample start and end. To get samples to play for as long as you press down the keys

on your keyboard, they need to be looped.

For this to work properly, you have to first set up two loop points which determine the

part of the sample that will be looped.

The instrument samples in the sound banks included with Reason are already looped.

The same will be true for most commercial sample libraries. However, if you need to,

you can use these controls to adjust the looping.

• The size and position of the loop – in the sample – is determined by two parame-

ters, Loop Start (the beginning of the loop) and Loop End (the end point of the

loop).

• The NN-XT then keeps repeating the section between the Loop Start and Loop

end until the sound has decayed to silence.

Play Mode

By using this knob you can select one of the following loop modes for each zone:

D FW

The sample in the zone will play only once, without looping.

D FW-LOOP

The sample will play from the sample start point to the loop end point, jump back

to the loop start point and then loop infinitely between the start and end loop

points. This is the most common loop mode.

D FW - BW

The sample will play from the sample start point to the loop end point, then from

the loop end point to the loop start point (backwards), and then loop infinitely for-

wards-backwards between the start and end loop points.

D FW-SUS

This works like FW-LOOP with the exception that it will only loop as long as the

key is held down. As you release the key, the sample will play to the absolute end

of the sample, that is beyond the boundaries of the loop.

This means that the sound may have a short natural release even if the release pa-

rameter is raised to a high value (which is not true for “FW-LOOP”, where the re-

lease parameter always controls the length of the sound after the key is released).

D BW

The sample will play only once - from the end to the beginning - without looping.

Lo Key and Hi Key

These parameters are described on page 267.

Lo Vel and Hi Vel

These parameters are described on page 272.

Fade In and Fade Out

These parameters are described on page 273.

Alt

This parameter is described on page 274.
