    This section explains the basic configuration of the ST- 224 as well as some important terms used in this manual. The illustration below shows the basic configuration of the ST-224. As can be seen from the chart, the ST-224 is made up of three main sections. • Sampler Samples the audio signal and performs playback using the pads and sequencer. ? ...

    playback by hitting the pad. For example, when sampling a drum pattern, a single drum sound or the entire pattern can be assigned to a pad. A combination of all settings for pads 1 - 8 is called a "bank". The ST-224 has three banks which are selected with the [BANK 1] - [BANK 3] keys. In effect, the ST-224 therefore gives the user access ...

    18 Introducing the ST-224 The following three types of memory are used in the ST- 224. • Main memory Volatile memory whose contents are lost when the ST-224 is turned off. Temporarily holds waveform data, pad parameter setting data, and song data for the internal sequencer. • Backup memory Nonvolatile memory whose contents are retained also whe ...

    BPM (beats per minute) is a tempo unit that indicates the number of quarter notes per minute. For example, a piece where a quarter note is 0.5 seconds long will have a BPM figure of 120, whereas a piece where a quarter note is 1 seconds long will have a BPM figure of 60. The ST-224 handles three types of BPM, which can be set individually. • Song ...
