In this thread will be single instrument design settings using only the MPC standalone effects. No outside effects can be used, because we want people to be able to replicate them. The goal is to use these to CREATE MUSIC! This thread is not for complaining about what the MPC doesn't do, or arguing. So please keep that out of this thread.

INCLUDE IN THE POST

1. Provide the Original Sound and Effected Sounds so other can do it.
2. Screenshots of each page needed to create the sound.
3. Nominated the another person that you know will do it.
4. No videos and don't upload the program files.

I created the first one and I'm nominating: Eyalc to make a beat with this one and post the next sound then nominate someone.

Interesting! I like the Prog Page with it Tuned down -6, with a +28 fine tune. I never mess wit the Fine Tune or the Filter Envelope. Im always adjusting the Amp Envelope

Tweaking each setting on the page can yield some really nice effects. I put the original sound there so anyone can try it. Would love to see how you tweak it. Have you tried playing around with the LFO modulation.
WAVE: SAWD RATE: 82 SYNC: 1/4

I've played with that section just to see how affects sounds. But I've never used it in any project. I will delve deeper into now tho!
