RLoop (Reverse Loop) The sample plays backwards in a loop. Play starts from the End Point, moves to the Start Point, then jumps back to the End Point and repeats. 42 q Editing q Please note the following important points. · The Loop Mode setting determines how playback proceeds while the sample is ON, but the Sounding Mode setting determines the sample's ON/OFF action. If Sounding Mode is set to "Trigger, " the sample will not loop. · The Start Point, Loop Point, and End Point can all be changed by editing, as described below. The loop length must be at least 128; the SU10 will not permit you to set loops shorter than this. · If you use the [REV] effect on a sample that is set to a reverse loop mode, the sample will play out in its original (forward) direction. SOUNDING MODE [SdMode] Purpose: Sets the pad's ON/OFF action. Values: Note, Toggl, Trggr To set: Press [­1], [+1] Explanation · Note (Note-driven) The sample plays only while the pad is held down. Play stops as soon as you release the pad, unless you extend the play by pressing [HOLD]. Pad Press Pad Release · Toggl (Toggle) Play starts when you press the pad the first time. The sample then plays through once (if One Shot or Reverse Shot) or else loops endlessly. To switch off the playing sample, you must press the pad once again.

Pad Press Pad Release Pad Press q Editing q 43 · Trggr (Trigger-driven) Pressing the pad (or sending a MIDI Note On) causes the sample to play once through, from Start Point to End Point. (But if Loop Mode is set to RLoop or RShot the sample will play in reverse. ) Pressing the pad again (or sending another MIDI Note On) while play is in progress causes playback to start over. Pad Press Pad Release PAD VOLUME [PadVol] Purpose: Sets the sample's relative volume. Values: 0, . . . , 127 To set: Touch the ribbon; press or hold [­1] or [+1]. Explanation Use this setting to adjust the sample volume relative to that of other samples. If you find that the sample A3 is too loud when played together with sample A4, for example, you can adjust by lowering the volume for A3 and/or increasing the volume for A4. If you play the sample while changing the value, you will be able to hear the level going up or down. ALTERNATE GROUP [AltGrp] Purpose: Selects the sample's alternate group. Values: Off, 1, 2, 3 To set: Press [­1], [+1]. Explanation You use this feature to identify samples that you do not want to have sounded together. All samples in the same group become mutually exclusive; playing a sample from a given group automatically forces off any other sample from that same group. You can set each sample into any of three groups (1, 2, or 3), or you can set the value to Off (no group). 44 q Editing q This feature is useful for · Preventing simultaneous play of clashing sounds.
