I have a manual for the FZ-1/10m I think the basic operations are the same.however,this should help you get started..
to create a sample,1)enter [source select] from the top of your main screen,2) then enter {sampling} 3) there you will find options to name your sample,set levels,length,etc. 4) with either a mic in the input,or an audio source in the line in jack,arrow down the the manual sample menu and presss enter.. 5)you have just created your first sample. 7)to hear it,hit the escape button twice,which will take you to the main menu,arrow down to voice edit.and hit enter.
If you would like a copy of the manual, I can get it to you for a small price ( copy charges and shipping). It is over 140 pages but is a very good manual,and very easy to understand(suprisingly).. E-mail me with contact info if interested..
Good Luck...
