Ive been playing with my new mpc1000 with jj os2xl and am trying to create a pingpong panning effect to an audio track. I have been messing with the flying pan effect in the effect window but it really isnt what i am going for. What are some ways to create a ping pong pannin effect? Do i need to chop the audio and put every other section on a separate track and hard pan the two tracks?

Ping pong is a term used more for echoes + panning. But You could set your MPC to record mixer changes and pan the audio yourself. If you think about it like an LFO, do panning it yourself would create an inherent sinewave shape but chopping it up destructively and going between the two would be a square wave shape.

For a cool effect, take a page from aphex twin and record panning changes on a break or last bar of a phrase. also playing parts backwards the are panned everywhere for a drop is dope.

Oh shit duhhhh :lol: I tend to come at everything from an mpc2000 perspective lol. But I'd rather do that, than speak to something I know nothing about.
