Hello MPC community,

I need your help, I didn't find the exact information about this on the internet...

I want to use an MPC 5000 as my live tool. In my live setup I need cutoffs on every 8 channels I will use, volumes on every 8 channels also and FX section manipulation (I think the Q/sliders are enough for that).

So my question to you is before I decide if I buy it or not, is: Can I control the volumes and the cutoffs with an external midi controller and if so what are the control change midi numbers of the volumes and cutoffs CC#. On the midi implementation chart in the manual there are no details about this.

Your answers will be very important regarding my buy. Thanks

PS: I've made the same post on the MPC 4000 section cause I really don't know what is the best choice
