sup folks......need some help

when i'm adding beats in my mpc and lets say I want to layer a beat or add an effect to every few beats instead of everybeat?
understand? i tried to add an effect after I playedback my seqence but instead in plays that effect back after every beat instead of every few.

help someone



thx

copy your bars to have a good 16 or 32 and add the effect every few bars.

If you mean how can you add attack or filter to individual sounds (such as a snare or kick), go to the step menu (make sure you're on the right track first) and you can edit each sound in that track individually. To make it easier, you can assign the same sound to diff't pads (PROGRAM menu, then ASSIGN) and then set one of the pads to have diff't attack, decay, etc by going to the PARAMS menu (still in PROGRAM) so when you make you beat, use both pads and you'll get the same sound with diff't effects.

ok i wasnt to clear in the first post. ok track 1 is 4 bars which is the drums

track 2 is the hi hat for 4 bars
and track 3 is the kick

Im trying to get the kick at every first bar of the drums when it is looped
example......1 (kick)234 1 (kick)234 1(kick)234 with the drums being the 1234 see what I mean?

I am new and a little confused over the whole copy thing, someone give me a hand here.


thx
