5 - Voices & Sample Zones
Voice Selection
Note about multiple voice editing: If you open several voices for editing that have
different voice parameter settings, the parameters in the different voices will remain as
they were until you change them. That is, if you have three voices selected and you
change the filter cutoff, all three voices will jump to the new cutoff setting, but all the
other parameters will remain as they were.
Samples & Multisamples
The samples contained in the voice are displayed and can be edited. If the voice
contains more than one sample, the word “Multisample” is displayed in the sample
field. All the samples in a multisample share the same set of synthesizer parameters.
However, the volume, fine tune and pan parameters can be adjusted separately for
each sample in a multisample.
To View & Edit the Samples in a Multisample
1. Click the + symbol to display the individual samples and key ranges which
comprise the multisample.
2. Click the - symbol to collapse the multisample.

Multisample Key Range Individual Sample Key Ranges
Multisamples allow you to place multiple samples under the same set of synthesizer voice
parameters.
The multisample key range sets the overall key range limit for the samples in the multisample.
In the diagram above, the top sample won’t be played, because its key range is
outside the limit of the Multisample key range.
