Thanks! I have only had my XW-G1 for 2 weeks. I have figured out what I need to do to perform with it with the presets. Looking forward to getting into designing my own tones/patches with this awesome synth. I'm still a neewbie to the XW-G1's way of doing things and making myself notes on how to do things as I figure them out.

I have had my XW-G1 for 2 weeks now. I have figured out how to do everything for my EDM electronic dance music performances to replace my Kaossilator Pro and microSAMPLER. If I can figure out how to do vocals with a vocoder robot voice I can replace my Kaoss Pad. I have not had a chance to check this post out on this forum yet but it sounds like the XW-G1 has the ability to do a robot voice: http://www.casiomusicforums.com/index.php?/topic/4483-tlkbxrobot/ Here is my EDM live jam video with the XW-G1 sampling:

Thanks everyone for the replys with info and helping me figure out where to look. Here is what I think I understand now: The 1 to 5 samples per user tone are loaded into one of 10 possible user tones 200-209. The 1 to 5 samples are loaded into the synth using the DataEditor application. So digging into the user tones 200-209 using the EDIT button: * on screen 1/3 I selected 'Split Edit' * under here I can choose S1-S5 using the PART + - keys (looks like the 5 samples and how they are setup, where loaded, zone played, etc.) * For a sample 'Split zone' area like for S1, screen 5/5 OriginalKey looks to be the key the sample is loaded on & KeyRangeHi is the highest key of the zone to play this sample & screen 4/5 KeyRangeLow is the lowest key of the zone to play this sample Now I am going to dig into the DataEditor manual to see what info I can find in there. Thanks everyone for the help

Here is my first EDM live jam after 4 days with my new XW-G1 Groove Synthesizer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ACppi1bfbBY

From this forum's information, I found out how to load the samples on the XW G1 to play them across the keyboard. I have 2 questions on this. On another vendor's product, you make one sample of C3 from the sound you want to reproduce and load it on the product's C3 keyboard key to play the sample across the keyboard so it is in tune. There are 5 samples loaded on the XW G1 across the keyboard, apparently one sample per octive, that are loaded to places across the keyboard. It looks like there is one sample per octive and XW G1 automatically does the pitch change within that one octive. 1) Which XW G1 keyboard key is each of the 5 samples loaded on? I assume the same note for each of the 5 octives but to be sure I'll ask question 2. 2) Is it the same note for all 5 octives? Thanks

Great job Casio on the XW G1 Groove Synthesizer! And thanks for this forum as the manual is hard to understand and is missing some information. I just got my XW G1 a few days ago. I am a synth player and songwriter of R&B and EDM. Before the XW G1 I had a set of keyboard/synthesizers for R&B, another set of samplers/keyboard/synthesizers for EDM, and it required multiple products for the features included in the XW G1. I was beginning to build my own synthesizer that had all these features in one unit to reduce the amount of equipment I had to haul around, setup, and take down. As I was searching YouTube looking up how to build a step sequencer, I came across the videos of the XW G1. I researched it and ordered one. As soon as I learn how to use all the features of the XW G1, I will only need the one synthesizer XW G1 for all this functionality. Thanks Casio!
