Share your knowledge on these two classic MPCs

Somewhere at this forum I have read MPC3000 LOADS files created
on the S3200xl and S3000xl.

The S3200xl manual says (and also the S3000xl manual) :
" The effects files created for S3200xl´s multi-effects CAN´T BE USED
in the S3000 or S3200" ( and I suppose the same for the MPC 3000)

So I don´t understand why mpc3000 CAN LOAD the S3200xl´s FILES
but CANNOT its EFFECT FILES.

You'll read this in the MPC3000 3.11 manual to if you care to look.

Because of the differing FX processing engine in each.

The MPC3000 can load the S3200/S3200XL series samples.

The MPC3000 can not load the S3000/S3200XL programs ( different structures not suitable for the MPC3000 ).

The MPC3000 can not load the S3200/S3200XL FX ...... because it doesn't have the effects processor DSP chip that is present within the S3200/S3200XL machines.

ok,
I have the mpc3000 3.0 manual, that only specifies this about
s1000/s3000...

So if I want to know if I´m wrong or not :

If take a sample with the s3200xl and EDIT it with some eq
(low pass. hi pass... no as an effect but as a filter option),
timestretch it...the mpc 3000 WILL LOAD it????

but NOT WILL LOAD it if I edit some effects on it, like reverb,
eq´ing as an effect...????

The S3200XL/S3200 use the same DISK FORMAT as an S3000.

Their disk format is a subset of the S3000 on which they are based.

Only the SAMPLE can be loaded by the MPC3000.

If any of the processes performed on your 3200XL are not part of a sample then they will not be loaded.

None of the S3200XL real time processes or PGM parameters will be loaded.

Only the SAMPLE data will be loaded.

Good luck,

Rohan.

ok,
thanks.
