MPC1000 Tips and Tricks

I thought it might be handy if people post some of their tips and tricks (or cool functions) on the mpc1k. By now people should be getting pretty acclaimated with the os and navigation so any shortcuts would help us that are just getting use to it.

No sir. Ive never seen anyone with the same nick....damn now i gotta find something else

I think he may spell it with a "E"

I guess no one has any tips but I heard you can change the viewing angle of the screen through an option...anyone know how to do that. Is it just contrast?

It is just the contrast.
hold[SHIFT] + turn the DATA wheel

dont use the wheel...its a forever process...

just tap on NUMERIC and then enter a number with the pads...or a digit only to make movements on the actual sample.

its really fast to work with.

If u wanna scroll fast in trim mode, hold down shift and move the cursor (digit button) to the left to the 100,000 part or wherever u want. Then just turn the data wheel like normal and the shit moves as fast as u want.

thank god

very good to know that... thx

Everything posted here is already in the manual. Anyone have undocumented tips?

...and after reading the manual and finding a faster way, I now know that my SHIFT button does not work. I've only have not had the 1000 for a full week yet and want to exchange it for a new one. Mine has also crashed while saving and loading programs a couple times.
