chopping samples

Question #1-In the mpc1000 is there a way when you trim your sample to go any faster than by turning the wheel. Cause it takes a hell lot of time.

Question #2-Tip8.How to chop a sample using your zones in the mpc 1000.

question 1--
When you are in trim mode bring the cursor to hightlight the numbers in the start point/ or end point. Then hold down shift and the left cursor button. That will let you select by digits-- much faster..this way!

i don't even have the mpc1000. I just learnt from messing with it at my local guitar center. I cant wait to get it though!!! its a tight piece

~Answer to ? #2 NO zonin on the 1k maybe in a future os maybe I doubt it tho. The XL and the 4k have zonin. Zonin is a nice feature to have mos def! Or u can use recycle and edit yur samples there! Just my 2!

Word its much easier to just edit samples on cool edit or something.

what exactly is this zoning shit about?

^^ Splits ya sample up into equal zones and assigns them across a stretch of pads... (eg a four bar loop could be split into 16 equal pieces and spread across all 16 pads in order, ie a sample for each step of four bars) excellent for choppin instrumental loops and rearranging.. fingers crossed to have it in a future update..

hey here's a program I found to chop up samples if you have a mpc1000.
