Is it possible to adjust tempo of whole sequences and songs?? Because the samples always stay the same maybe I'm missing something. Any info appreciated
Depend what you need, you want change tempo of sequence and have samples "stretch to tempo" with:
a) pitch change relative to tempo - than you have to adjust TUNE parameter to all tracks (samples)
or
b)no pitch change - on mpc 1000 you can only do so called patched phase (also all samples have to be patched phrased to follow tempo change.. and it's a lot of work and limitations). It's actually the same as cutting your samples shorter and sequencing them more tightly. I use one note hits only and I can play back my tracks at any tempo with no pitch change, not loosing it's vibe. You can't do that with longer samples, because if you have for instance a sample with JUST two notes.. like bassdrum and snare.. if you change a tempo, you just change tempo of events in a sequence, NOT the distance between bassdrum and snare.
There is no any automatic "force to tempo" thingy, like on PC programs
