Functionality added in version 1.10
Using the MV-8000 in Multitimbre
Sampler Mode
In Multi Timbre Sampler mode, the MV-8000's instruments function as a multi-timbral
sound module, and the performance data from the velocity pads is transmitted as
MIDI messages (MIDI OUT A/B, R-BUS).
Playing the MV-8000 from an externally-connected
sequencer
Here's how the MV-8000 can function as a multi-timbral sound module receiving
multiple channels of MIDI performance data from an externally-connected MIDI
sequencer.
1.
Connect your MIDI sequencer to the MV-8000's MIDI IN connector as
described in Quick Start “Preparing your equipment and making connections”
(p. 4).
MIDI OUT
VGA OUT/MOUSE (OPTION)
AC Cord

Certain limitations apply
when Multi Timbre
Sampler mode is on. For
details, refer to
“Performance Data Flow
and Limitations in Multi
Timbre Sampler Mode”
(p. 4).
Turn the Multi Timbre Sample Mode parameter On in the MIDI screen.
4.
This setting lets the MV-8000 receive performance data from your external MIDI
sequencer, so that the MV-8000's instruments will play.
5.
Press .
Sequence screen will appear.
Start playback on your external sequencer.
6.
The MV-8000's instruments will play the performance data being sent from your
external MIDI sequencer.

Recording your velocity pad performance on an
externally-connected sequencer
If you turn Multi Timbre Sampler Mode on, your playing on the MV-8000's velocity
pads will be transmitted as MIDI messages. This means you can record your
performance on an externally-connected sequencer.
Connect the MV-8000's MIDI OUT connector to your MIDI sequencer as

This specifies the MIDI OUT connector and channel used to transmit your playing on
the velocity pads.

Sampler Mode setting in the MIDI screen.
When Off (normal)

Velocity Pads
Performance data received at MIDI IN or from the velocity pads is sent to MIDI OUT

Velocity Pads
The MV-8000 will operate in the following way.
Sequencer Instruments
• Operate as a multi-timbral sound module
Performance data received at MIDI IN is sent to the instruments. Instrument part 1
receives MIDI channel 1, instrument part 2 receives MIDI channel 2, etc., ... and
instrument part 16 receives MIDI channel 16.
• Transmit performance data from the velocity pads as MIDI messages
Your playing on the velocity pads is transmitted as MIDI messages. The performance
data from the velocity pads is transmitted from the MIDI output (MIDI OUT A/B
connector, R-BUS connector) and channel specified by the Pad Tx Channel parameter
in the MIDI screen.
Limitations when Multi Timbre Sampler Mode is On
• Performance data from the velocity pads cannot be sent to the internal sound
generator.
• Performance data cannot be recorded on the MV-8000's internal sequencer.
• Multi Timbre Sampler Mode is available only while the following screens are
displayed.
SEQUENCE screen
INSTRUMENTS screen (performance data from the velocity pads is not transmitted)
EFFECTS screen
MIXER screen

The correspondence between
the incoming MIDI channels
and the instrument part played
y each channel is fixed. You
cannot change this
correspondence.

Truncate

Functionality added in version 1.10
Use the Truncate operation to delete unwanted
portions of a sample.
By deleting unnecessary portions (e.g., regions of
silence at the beginning and end) of the sample data
used by a partial or audio phrase, you can reduce the
amount of space occupied by the data, and use
memory more efficiently.

Explanation
The sample being edited will be modified directly.
A new truncated sample will be created, and exchanged for
the current sample of the partial.
Executing Truncate with Type
set to “Replace” may affect
how another partial, audio
phrase, or audio event sounds.
Refer to Truncating a sample
that's used by more than one
partial / audio phrase / audio
event (p. 6), and use Type
“Duplicate” if necessary.
13.
Press (Execute).
The Truncate operation will be executed.
Truncating a sample that's used by more than one partial / audio
phrase / audio event
As an example, let's assume that a certain sample is used by partials A, B, and C,
and that you've set the truncate type to Replace.
partial A
partial B
partial C
If you execute Truncate on partial A with the settings shown in the illustration,
partial B will not be affected, but some of the sample used by partial C will be
deleted. This means that partial C will no longer sound as it did before truncation.
If the Truncate operation you are about to execute would make it impossible for
another partial, audio phrase, or audio event to play in the same way as before, the
following warning message will appear.
You can't use the Undo
function to bring back a
truncated sample.
(One or more other partials, audio phrases, and/or audio events will be deleted if
you execute Truncate. Are you sure you want to execute?)
F button Explanation
