Technical questions for the MPC2000xl and the MPC2000

Hi guys

Despite having RTFM’d I have a question…

Does the note variation slider of the 2KXL sends MIDI cc?

I realize that assigning a MIDI cc to the slider allows to control its function from an external midi controller (page 21 of the user manual), but what about using the slider to sweep filters on hardware units?
I’d like to use the slider of the MPC to sweep the filter of my rack sampler. I tried yesterday and it did not work. Settings on the sampler are OK (input channel and CC number), I tested with another controller and it did work.

If this is not possible I’ll have to hook up a midi knob box of some sort and just record the MIDI cc in the MPC track, but I hope I can do everything with the MPC fader.
Am I overlooking something?

thanks
