Common AIRA Compact P-6 Creative Sampler Questions
How do I sync the P-6 to my other MIDI devices (like a drum machine or DAW) for tempo and start/stop?
Go to the System settings (Shift + Value knob) and configure the MIDI Clock Source (internal, USB, or MIDI in). Set the MIDI Tx/Rx channels to match your other gear for proper communication.
How do I save a pattern/sequence I've created on the P-6 so I don't lose my work?
Press Shift + the Memory button. Use the Value knob to select a memory slot, then press the Memory button again to confirm the save. You can save up to 64 patterns.
What are the colored 'Tones' on the P-6, and how do I quickly switch between them?
The Tones represent the 6 sound slots within a Kit (Kick, Snare, Hi-Hat, etc.). You can directly select a Tone by pressing the corresponding colored pad while holding the Tone Select button.
My samples aren't playing back correctly – they sound distorted or are missing notes. What could be the issue?
Check the sample start and end points to ensure they're not clipping or set incorrectly, and also verify that the sample's pitch isn't being transposed beyond its reasonable range in the settings.
Can the P-6 be used as a USB audio interface for recording into my computer?
Yes, the P-6 functions as a 2-in/2-out USB audio interface. Connect it to your computer via USB and select it as the input/output device in your DAW.
