that is bad!!! (not bad=bad but bad=good)

I dont have the manual infront of me but... will it cover these things?
I would love to do the custom screen. also, I went to your site and I was wondering if your MPC editor will work on the 1K.

Man! that is super dope! I wish I knew about that site a few years ago.
By the looks of you gear list for sale... what types of music do you work on? PM me some time. I would like to learn more.

whoa.. mpc 3000 is the mpc200xl.com website guy? you know man.. ive been reading for your site over and over for quite a long time now.. and attribute your site to the fact that ive never invested in shite equpment or stuff that i couldnt use.. like my almost mishap with buying an sp-808/sp-808ex.. but yea word.. id love aclue on the custom screen.. F U PAYME! ;) ill have to bite j-zone.. although the machine is purely for my own sessions.. i make music to make me smile..


but yea.. one love!.. so i wonder.. out of allthe stuff on your site. does anything apply to the mpc 1000 as far as program editing ish and the randomness as far as tricks and tips? (i figured not since the pgm ish is different.. either way though.. lemme know)

BE EASY!

"does anything apply to the mpc 1000 as far as program editing ish and the randomness as far as tricks and tips?"

Here's one:

Effects handling is significantly different on the MPC1000 than the older MPC's. Effects settings are saved as part of the ALL file (seq/songs). You get 20 locations to store FX1, FX2 and Master. It will help greatly once you decide what effects to use for the current project to go into the beginning of the seq and enter an Effects Change. This is done by going into Step Edit, pressing Insert and scroll until you find Effect, and press Do It. Select the Effects number that you are using under the Effects Select section of the machine.

This does allow you to `automate` effect changes since you can change what effects settings you are using at any time. This makes effects settings independant of the programs used (like the former models did).

You can also load individual effects settings from one ALL into another so you can keep re-using your favorite settings. This can be selected from the conformation screen you get when opening the ALL file.

I also found the Boot Memory Test, and Reset Boot.

Still looking for the Credits screen and the Emergency Boot. Anyone?


how do you get to the pad sensitivity screen???
