Set polyphony to 1.

Im not sure what u mean, if you want to change a stereo sample to a mono ...press "sample" select the sample you want to edit. Press "trim/lp",press "edit". Highlight the edit field and scroll to "stereo to Mono" press "do it".

If you want to make it so your whole sample triggers with a tap of a pad.......Program,key group mix, Zone, look 2/3 down the screen and change play mode to "one shot"

hope this helps
