Technical questions for the MPC2000xl and the MPC2000

Alright, this is kinda hard to explain but anyway. I made a sequence with two drum programs. However, I only ended up using one note (/pad) from the other program, so I figured I'd just move the piano note in question to the program that has all the other samples. Just to make things more simple.
Since the corresponding pad in the other program was used up, I thought I would just assign the piano note to another pad and go to step edit and make it work that way. I used the piano note for a solo type of thing so editing one by one would be a pain in the ass, SO my question is: can I change the place (trans?pose?) of each occurence of that note in the sequence with one move (i.e. from, say, a01 to a 14)?
Thanks.

I'm pretty sure it's possible on the 2000, I just did it on my 60 2 nights ago. You just select a pad, and change all occurances in a track or all tracks to a different pad.

Sorry I can't be of more help, but look under the edit functions it shoul be there.

i think in program mode u can copy info to a diff pad then in step just assign that to the new pad.

I wasn't really able to get it work, but thanks anyway. I'll keep trying.

you cant use the "transpose" function under misc, unless the track is set to midi.....but you can use it to transpose your drum programs, it doesnt change the drum sample tuning, but it changes the location of the midi note.

first switch it to midi, then go into misc, select the track, transpose it to whatever, then go back to main screen and switch it back to DRUM. should work, but you have to count the pads from where you changed it to. ...ya know? then transpose it by that amount.

Sounds logical, thanks!
