● About This Manual ● 1 1 About This Manual The purpose of this manual is to help you quickly master the operation of your SU10. Although compact, your SU10 offers a surprising array of playback, edit- ing, and utility functions.
2 ● Precautions ● 2 Precautions PLEASE READ ALL PRECAUTIONS BEFORE USING YOUR SU10. 1. NEVER switch power off while the LCD is displaying the Keep PwrOn mes- sage. This message indicates that the SU10 is writing to nonvolatile memory . Switching power off at this time may result in loss of all data in the SU10.
● Overview and Basic Concepts ● 3 This chapter presents a very brief overview of basic concepts relevant to under - standing and operation of the SU10. What is the SU10? The SU10 combines the functions of a digital stereo phrase sampler with a variety of add-on features that significantly enhance its effectiveness in a performance environment.
4 ● Overview and Basic Concepts ● Samples The SU10 stores up to 48 samples. A sample is a digital recording of an acoustic waveform (or two waveforms, if stereo), together with playback parameters that determine how the sound is played: the type of loop applied, the direction of playback, the start and end points, and so on.
● Overview and Basic Concepts ● 5 Note that the quality of the recording improves as the rate of reading — called the sampling frequency — increases. Although higher sampling frequencies give bet- ter quality , they also consume more memory and therefore reduce available re- cording time.
6 ● Overview and Basic Concepts ● External Modes The SU10 also supports two “external” modes that are entirely independent of its sampling capability . These modes are provided primarily for live performance environments, and operate on an analog signal that passes through the SU10 in real time.

● Supplying Power and Connecting Up ● 13 5 Supplying Power and Connecting Up Supplying Power Y our SU10 can run through an AC/DC adaptor or on batteries. If you connect up both at the same time, the SU10 will run from the adaptor . Using the adaptor Please be sure to use a Y amaha P A-3B or P A-1B adaptor only .
14 ● Supplying Power and Connecting Up ● When to Replace Batteries When batteries begin to go low , the SU10 disables EDIT , RECORD, and UTILITY modes first. If you attempt to switch from PLA Y mode into one of these other modes at this time, the SU10 displays the Battry Low! message briefly and remains in PLA Y mode.

16 ● Playback ● 6 Playback This chapter takes you through the various sample and song play procedures, and explains the use of the special “external” performance functions. Note that replay of samples and songs is affected by each sample’ s edit settings — in particular , by the sounding mode and the loop settings.
● Playback ● 17 5. Press [-1] or [+1] to set the digital volume to an appropriate value. This setting determines the level at which the signal reproduces internally . Y ou generally want to set the level to just below the clipping level, as described in the box below .
18 ● Playback ● 2. Hold down [PAD 3] briefly to play sample A3, then release the button to stop the sound. T ry this several times. If necessary , adjust the volume using the slider , the [-1] or [+1] button, or the volume controls on your external speakers or amp.
● Playback ● 19 HOLD SONG 1 1 3. Now try playing some other samples along with the held sample. Y ou can play from the same bank, or you can switch to some other bank. ▼ Remember that there is a limit to the number of samples you can play at one time.
20 ● Playback ● 2. If necessary , press [BANK] to change the bank. Then press the pad correspond- ing to the sample you want to play . A staircase-like icon appears in front of the Vol indication at the lower left of the LCD.
● Playback ● 21 Special Features II: Ribbon Controller The SU10’ s ribbon controller is probably its most distinctive feature. Y ou can use the ribbon to control pitch, filter , or crossfade during replay of samples and songs. Y ou can also use it to play a special “scratchpad” during sample play .
22 ● Playback ● Filter Pla y This feature applies a filter to samples and songs, with the ribbon providing dy- namic control of the filter cutoff frequency .
● Playback ● 23 V iewing/Changing the filter and resonance settings 1. Set the SU10 to filter -play operation as described above, then press [SHIFT] + [EDIT] . The LCD indicates the currently selected filter type. 2. If you wish to change the filter type, press [-1] or [+1] as necessary .
24 ● Playback ● FIL TER SETTINGS Y ou can select from three filter types and three resonance v alues. The filter types are LPF (lo w-pass filter), BPF (band-pass f ilter), and HPF (high-pass filter). LPF: Removes frequencies abo ve the cutof f value.
● Playback ● 25 Current ribbon value SCRATCH indicator SCRATCH symbol 2. Now try running your finger over the ribbon to scratch out the section. The scratchpad does not operate on the entire source sample (unless it is very short), b ut only on a small section, or “windo w .
26 ● Playback ● 2. Y ou can now change the mix dynamically by touching or rubbing your finger over the ribbon. T ry this now while playing back some samples or a song. Notice that the LCD displays the ribbon value in real time. 3. T o return to normal PLA Y mode, press [EXIT] .
● Playback ● 27 Playing a Song Y our SU10 can memorize and replay up to four songs . Each song is an arbitrary sample playback sequence that you have recorded into memory .
28 ● Playback ● 3. Press [STOP] to interrupt the playback. 4. Press [PLAY] to resume playback from the point of interruption. 5. Press [STOP] to interrupt playback again.
● Playback ● 29 External Performance Modes The external performance modes are an added feature that allow you to apply a dynamic filter or a DJ-like scratch effect to a realtime signal as it feeds through the SU10. Please keep in mind that these modes are not sampling modes, and have nothing to do with samples and songs as described above.
30 ● Playback ● External Filter This mode applies filtering to realtime input as it feeds through the SU10. Y ou use pads 1 to 4 to select or change the filter type, and pads 7 to 9 to select or change the resonance. Y ou use the ribbon to dynamically change the filter cutoff fre- quency .
● Recording Samples, and Creating Songs ● 31 7 Recording Samples, and Creating Songs This chapter explains how to record samples and how to create songs.
32 ● Recording Samples, and Creating Songs ● 2. T o select, press [BANK] to choose the desired bank, then press the appropriate pad or press [+1] or [–1] as necessary . When you are sure that you have selected the correct pad, press [ENTER] . The LCD displays the Gain parameter setting.

42 ● Editing ● • PLoop (Partial Loop) The sample plays one through from Start Point to End Point, then jumps back to the Loop Point. The section from the Loop Point to the End Point then plays out repeatedly .
● Editing ● 43 Please note the following important points. • The Loop Mode setting determines how playback proceeds while the sample is ON, but the Sounding Mode setting determines the sample’ s ON/OFF ac- tion. If Sounding Mode is set to “T rigger ,” the sample will not loop.
44 ● Editing ● • Trggr ( T rigger -driven) Pressing the pad (or sending a MIDI Note On) causes the sample to play once through, from Start Point to End Point. The sample does not loop. (But if Loop Mode is set to RLoop or RShot the sample will play in reverse.
● Editing ● 45 This feature is useful for • Preventing simultaneous play of clashing sounds. • Reducing risk of accidental sound dropouts caused by too many samples play- ing at once. • Operational efficiency: Y ou can use a single pad to simultaneously stop play of one sample and start play of another .
46 ● Editing ● ST AR T POINT [ StPnt ] Purpose: Sets the playback start point. V alues: 0 ,...,(127 less than endpoint) T o set: T ouch the ribbon; or press or hold [–1] , [+1] .
