Sample Start

The START control determines at what point in the sample that it begins when the Soundsource is triggered. This setting will vary depending on the number of samples in the Soundsource.

This feature has several applications. First, it can remove sharp attacks or clicks at the start of a sample.

• Sample Start – Zero
  

• Sample Start – Increased
  

Soundsources have many samples mapped to different ranges on the keyboard. These ranges are called “zones.”

The number of zones determines the maximum range of the Start slider. If the Soundsource has more than 12 zones mapped, the range of the START slider is 1 second. If it has less than 12 zones, then the START slider’s range can be up to 90 seconds. The .60 range is especially useful when using the Arpeggiator

NOTE: In the Synth Bass part of the core library, sometimes a & b mapping variations are provided. These are to give more sample start range possibilities for modulation.

Sample Start Fade

These are mode switches that control the shape of the sample start point. This can be useful for eliminating clicks that might happen at certain sample start offsets. These three mode switches set the duration of fade-in;

		No Fade-In eliminating
		Medium Fade-In
		Maximum Fade-In
