Controlling an MPC with an external MIDI controller

Is it possible to assign some knobs or sliders from a MIDI controller to some MPC parameters ?

Example : I would like to control "MPC Pad 02" 's pitch with a knob from my MIDI controller + "MPC Pad 03" 's volume with another knob.

Example of controller :


Is it possible ? How ?

IIRC it's possible to control the track mixer and the pad mixer via MIDI CC, as well as all the buttons on the unit are remote mappable. Individual pad parameters are not available I'm afraid, but of course certain things can be achieved with Qlink modulations, and Qlink sliders can be CC controlled via MIDI.

Just to keep in mind - certain CC controls can cause glitches with the MPC if you can't use "thinning" on the MIDI sending end, guess the MPC has quite limited resources for handling realtime MIDI control data or smthng..

If you care to read the manual, you will see this

It will allow you to do that and others have made macros to control MPC this way

Thanks @bliprock for your answer.
I don't have 128XL but OS2XL. Is this still possible with this OS ?

I would like to do this :
PAD 1 volume => MIDI controller CC1
PAD 1 transpose => MIDI controller CC2
PAD 2 volume => MIDI controller CC3
PAD 2 transpose => MIDI controller CC4
...
PAD 16 volume => MIDI controller CC31
PAD 16 transpose => MIDI controller CC32
etc.

Do you think it is possible with OS2XL @bliprock ?

Here is the link for volume :

Thanks @le rat and @TYPO, I just updated my OS2XL (my version was too old to see these options ).


But even on http://www7a.biglobe.ne.jp/~mpc1000/os2xl/button.htm
I don't see how to assign :

CC1 of a MIDI controller => MPC PAD 01's TUNE
CC2 of a MIDI controller => MPC PAD 02's TUNE

Any idea ?

Hi @le rat, @TYPO, do you have an idea for :
CC1 of a MIDI controller => MPC PAD 01's TUNE
CC2 of a MIDI controller => MPC PAD 02's TUNE

I cannot find how to do this

Hi,
No idea sorry.
Depends on what you want to do but pitch bend could probably work. Or finding a way to control pattern transpose with MIDI. I never did that so I don't know

Ok...

@TYPO Do you have any idea on how to assign a MIDI controller CC to the TUNE parameter of a pad :

You have to look at it is being the same function as the buttons and sliders only external control .What you are trying to do would be best done with QLINK(in which you can assign externally as well)per pad or full program.I use a ribbon control for my QLINK .I will try to think of more options.
