Hiya,
Is it possible to adjust the volume of a program overall? I can only find the level adjust for the pads- not so great for instrument programs, right?
Same goes for assigning to individual outputs.
:?
Otherwise 'tis a wicked machine :twisted:

not sure if track velocity is what you are after but if so i think thats comin with the update

Program amp adjust at this point can best be accomplished via BlueBox, in my opinion.

Set the volume of a given pad, right click and tell it to Apply Setting to Pads...

Pretty quick, just requires a little turnaround time to dump back and forth from MPC to PC.

There's a few workflow issues with the MPC series (I'd love to be able to browse a nice full-screen list of samples in memory while assigning samples per pad, or even sort alphabetically for that matter! As is they're listed by creation date or something...) but overall they're great machines.

The 1k is the most reliable piece of kit I have, and OS2 is gonna up the ante for everyone.

Track velocity might help you accomplish this but it's a one-time fix for one thing and for another adjusts the velocity which will indirectly up the level but may cause other unintended effects like modifying filter if it's tied in to V>Filter hookup, etc.
