MIDI Audition<br />

MIDI Audition allows you to (monophonically) play the current sample using your<br />

MIDI keyboard. The sample can be transposed up or down from C4 which plays the<br />

original pitch. The transpose feature is useful when looping since sometimes a transposed<br />

sample will reveal a tick or pop which was masked at original pitch.<br />

A looped sample will continue to play inside the loop from the point where you<br />

released the key. An un-looped sample will play from the beginning as long as you play<br />

the entire sample. If you release the key before the end of the sample, the sample will<br />

begin at the release point the next time you press a key. This feature is useful to cue up<br />

extremely long samples.<br />

• To play the entire sample from the beginning, select the entire waveform<br />

(double-click on the wave or use Select All), then play the keyboard.<br />

• The sample will always play from the beginning of any selected region.<br />

• To play from the beginning of a sample with no region selected, press the Ctrl<br />

key on the computer keyboard while you play your MIDI keyboard.<br />

• Footswitch 1 (set in Preferences, Controllers) operates as a sustain pedal when<br />

MIDI audition is enabled.<br />

4. Play another key. Note that the sample begins playing from the point you released<br />

the key.<br />
