I am a novice to the mpc500, but have read the manual, and when faced with problems I have usually been able to solve them. I have a couple of issues;
1. I cannot assign pads to specific keys on my keyboard. I have tried doing this on the DEFAULT ASSIGN window on the MIDI/SYNC pad. But if change A1:Csharp1 to A1:C3 for example, nothing changes, the sound still comes out when i play Csharp1 on my keyboard. I have made sure the track is set to MIDI not DRUM. I just want to be able to assign samples to specific keys on my keyboard. There is not a problem with connection as my keyboard is happy to play the sounds, its just that I can't move them.
2. Is it possible for me to play and record sounds from my keyboard into my mpc?
3. Is it possible to change the volume of a single track. At the moment im using the EDIT VELOCITY window in the SEQ EDIT pad.
Thankyou for your time, I have checked out a lot of youtube vids and a lot of old forum posts, but still couldn't be sure whether its my mpc, or me being an ass. Probably the latter. Hopefully the latter.
