4K Newbie Bible for new MPC 4000 users!!!

BIG QUESTION

Can I record my keyboard into the Mpc 4000 without sampling or midi , just direct audio recording.

I hear no and that it has to be triggered by a midi note in order to do free and long recordings of live instruments like keyboards (no midi) and bass guitar.

It would make sense to me you can just press record and start playing away on the guitar when hooked up properly to the mpc4k.

My friends 2500 does this just fine.


any help?

Thanks in advance

Yeah you can

hello, please help. I have such a problem, the sound clicks and is interrupted during playback, there are also noises, I do not understand what is the matter. the device stood idle for a long time

So did you figure out how to do it? I want to do the same thing and go no idea how to reach that goal.

Funfact:
"The USB port can also be used to connect an ASCII keyboard for easier file naming."
You can use the keyboard to switch between windows

Using "Second Sequence" and Solo

Play a sequence XY with several tracks and "Simul play" is ON

Now if you solo - led´s say - the second track in your sequence XY - it will also simultanious solo the second track of your sequence which you have chosen for the "Simul play"!

Hope that makes sence...
