10. Sampling and playing back a phrase
A phrase from the audio input can be recorded into one of the Sample 1, 2 keys. Then when you have selected a program from the �SAMPLE/PLAY� group (programs 90�99), you can play back the sample while using the touch pad to control the playback speed or reverse-playback. If you have selected a program from other than the �SAMPLE/PLAY� group, pressing the Sample 1, 2 keys will play back the phrase that was recorded in that key. You can record for approximately six seconds in each of the two keys. The recorded phrases will be lost when the power is turned off. It is not possible to save the recorded phrases.
