I'm well aware that you can only use one program at a time when sequencing in the mpc 3000, but can you use as a sampler only and sequence more than one program from an outside sequencer?

nopes,

but you can set up different pgms with other samples untill your memory exceedes.
Or have different layers of filter, pitch, envelope, mixer settings per program using the same samples changing the beat by sequencing pgm changes.

For example you have the same guitar but its more filtered on pgm 2 than on the first one. You dont waste alot of mem because your assinging the same sample in this case.
you can do some interesting things by creating multiple pgms like layers in a rompler. then mess with pgm change jumps in arrangement.

works good for breakdowns too :wink:
