Echo.*:<edit.0> applies an echo to the sample. Each echo follows the last by (delay) seconds, and is softer than the last by (attenuation) percent.
Extend.*:<edit.0> allows you to extend the sample to give yourself more room to work. The amount to extend by can be entered in terms of samples or seconds playtime.
Filter.*:<edit.0> applies either a high pass or low pass digital filter to the sample, which can help to remove noise artifacts.

Sampler.8:When off: Recording will occur in the background|MWhen on: Recording takes over the entire machine, improving quality on some samplers. (Press Escape to abort in this mode)
Sampler.9:If recording into a mono sample with a stereo sampler, these icons allow you to choose which channel is recorded.
Sampler.10:<Sampler.9>
Sampler.11:If this is on, as much memory as is available will be used for sampling. NOTE that this may incur a delay between pressing 'record' and actual recording occurring.
Sampler.12:Enter a trigger value between 0.0 and 1.0 here. Recording into your sample will not actually start until amplitudes greater than this trigger value are detected.
