MPC 1000 loop sample repeatedly?

in my 1000 when i sample somthing and then edit it in trim mode i can loop the sample repeateldy by holding down on pad A13.

i want to know how i can do this same thing outside of trim mode when i am recording a sequence. i couldnt find much in the manual so i figured i go to the newbies forum casue i felt stupid anywhere else. any help is good help.

Manual pg 56.

Hey, didn't the boss say "none of that RTFM stuff here"?

If you mean doing it as part of a sequence, you would just put a Note On Pad Event in a Sequence Track.

But for repeating short samples "live", you use Note Repeat mode. The T.C. "Time Correct" settings control how the samples are triggered.

Now, get thee to the manual...

aw come on stereo i did not say RTFM I downloaded the mpc1000 manual (I don't own an mpc1000 you see I'm an 2000xl owner) and searched for the looping of a sample in the manual and page 56 explains perfectly how to loop a sample. So I think I did a good job.

Mode + Pad 11. Under PLAY MODE change to NOTE ON.

But how can you loop a sample without having to hold it down the entire time? A sample that is not a beat? Say, one that is 19 seconds long, non-rythmic aka can't sequence it properly because there is no bpm.

Is there any way to get a sample to just play over and over again until you tell it to stop?
