live effects tweaking

another really basic quetion that i can't seem to find in the manual. can you record/overdub fx changes within a sequence? say i'd like to have a filter tweak at a specific point in a sequence-- does the mpc capture that automation info and save it in place...so the next time i play it back from that location the filter tweak will still be there? or do i have to record the filter tweak while performing it...then bring it back in as a separate audio file?

thanks!

edit*-- talking about the mpc1000 here. actually, this question is applicable to the whole mpc line. i'm deciding on wether or not buy...and which one to buy.

no takers?

Yes you can, but I have never done it. But just for your info the MPC is tricky with the effects. You can only have two active effects and so changing them requires a little time and effort, but I believe you can automate effects and use the Qlink Slider to do so as well.

I honestly don't use effects on my MPC, so I would like someone else to second this for a definite answer.

thanks, objektiveone. can anyone confirm this?

I believe there is a section in the MPC1000 tutorial you can buy. You have to buy it, but it is worth it. Search the forums as much as you can too. I know people have discussed this before.
