Yamaha A3000 Owner's Manual page 169

If you push this knob while playing the sample with the AUDITION key or an external
keyboard, the loop start address automatically resets to the current playback location.
LpEnd
Knob 3
• Sets the end point (loop-back point) of the loop.
• Note that actual loop handling depends on the loop-mode setting. ( 168).
• The EndType setting on the Configure page selects the units used to indicate the
address on the screen ( 161). If you set EndType to beat, the loop end address is
indicated by its distance, in beats, from the loop start address. The beat calculation is
determined by the Tempo setting that you make with Knob 4; see directly below.
If EndType (in the Config page)
Step = 1,..., 10000
Knob 4
• This knob selects the increment used for address adjustments made with Knobs 2
and 3. Specifically, the value that you set here determines the amount that the ad-
dress value changes when you turn Knob 2 or Knob 3 by a single click.
• The setting is identical to the Step setting on the Wave page ( 165). You can change
the value from either page.
• If the EndType parameter on the Config page ( 163) is set to beat, then this knob
operates differently, as described below.
If EndType (in the Config page) = beat:
Knob 4 Tempo
• This knob sets the tempo used to calculate the number of beats between the start
address and end address.
• The setting is identical to the Tempo setting on the Wave page ( 165). You can
change the value from either page.
• If you push the knob, the A3000 automatically calculates and displays the tempo
value for you, based on the assumption that the number of beats between the current
start and end addresses is 4 beats (or an even multiple or dividend of 4 beats).
• If the EndType parameter on the Config page ( 163) is set to a value other than beat,
then this knob operates differently, as described above.
LpMonitr
Knob 5
Push this knob to monitor the sound of the loop. This feature lets you hear how the
sound of the loop changes as you edit the loop addresses.
The LpMonitr setting lets you start the monitored loop playback slightly ahead of the
loop start point. If you set the value to -500ms and then press the knob, for example, the
A3000 begins replay from a point 1/2 second before the loop start. (This lead-in is played
only once, and does not recur after the loop is entered.)
