The Sample parameters, located directly below the key map display, are divided into two groups: single and multiple, differentiated by color on the front panel: The single parameters reside on a background that is the same color as the remote editor panel as a whole, while the multiple parameters are surrounded by a lighter background color.
Single adjustment parameters can only be applied to one zone at a time. Adjustments made to these parameters always only apply to the zone with edit focus.
Multiple adjustment parameters apply to all selected zones, just like the synth parameters, as described above.
Often you will find yourself in a situation where you select multiple zones and parameter settings differ between them. This is quite normal. For example, you will often find yourself making adjustments to for example level and filtering to balance the sound between several samples across the keyboard. However, if you have multiple selections this can sometimes lead to confusion: Enter the NN-XT's "conflicting parameters" indication:
Whenever two or more selected zones have conflicting parameter settings, NN-XT will notify you about this by showing a small "M" (for multiple) symbol, next to the parameter.
The controls on the panel always show the setting for the zone with edit focus.
By clicking your way through the zones within the selection, you can see the settings for each zone.
If you adjust a parameter, all selected zones will be set to the same value for this parameter.
You can put this functionality to good use when checking how a patch has been created and when checking that your own settings are consistent through the various zones.
