MPC5000 reviews, bug reports and fellow user support on the most recent standalone, hardware MPC from Akai
By hoytboyd Tue May 19, 2015 1:03 am
i would like to take one sample and change the note of the sample. so i could use one sound like a clap and then take that clap and change the note to whatever note i like and assign it to a pad, repeating the process with multiple notes to multiple pads in a program.
Example: Pad 1 = D#, Pad 2 = C, Pad 3 = D, Pad 4 = F#
i use the MPC 5000 in a live band so i use a bit differently.
Thanks for any help!
