Making Progress

Last night I got my first track laid down it sounds ???? IM kinda hard on my self so I'll say it sounds o.k. But anyway after I had it done I wanted to lower some off the individual tracks volume or levels which ever. So I let the track play then went to mixer function. I have the eb16 installed in my 2000XL. But the only volume that I could adjust was the first track none of the other tracks could be adjusted. Can someone help. And is there a way to take the track and import it into sound forge and add some effects to it. I dont have my computer hooked up to my Mpc I use floppies for everything. Also is there a way to hook my mpc up to my computer I only have a soundblaster live card installed in my PC. THANX!

"...the only volume that I could adjust was the first track none of the other tracks could be adjusted"

the volume faders in the mixer is not for separate tracks but for separate pads. When you´re in the mixer, hit the pad you want to adjust, boom, you jump to that fader and you can adjust it.

No, not a track. If you´re desperate you can save a sound as a wav to floppy. Open it in Sound forge. Manipulate it. Save it back as a wav to the floppy and then load it back into the mpc and replace the original sound on that pad.

when you are in the mixer screen, it you press a pad it will highlight that sound on the mixer. then use the scroll wheel to adjust the volume of that sound.
