What is the best way to syncronize a sample loop to the internal preset drum sequence programs?when i assign a loop sample to one of the pads the tap tempo only works for the preset drum kits and its quite difficult to tight them together to the same tempo. :o
cheers

I use the tune feature at times to make the loop fit, sure it affects the tuning, but sometimes that's just fine. Otherwise use timestretch on your computer.

A software out for computers? Of course! :wink: Cool Edit aka Adobe Audition, Sound Forge, etc. etc. plus various sequencers like Logic, Cubase, Nuendo etc. Any of these will do a timestretch,

There's Mac package for building Programs, and a similar one for the PC, but that's all they do. There is no "ak.sys" type all-in-one environment where you can stretch samples, lay them out over key ranges, or do other fancy stuff, for the MPC1000 (yet).

Since the MPC1000 uses standard WAV files, I prefer the flexibility of using any PC WAV manipulation tools I can get my hands on, instead of expecting one program to do it all. And building PGMs on the MPC1000 itself gets very quick with a little experience...

Dude, you're looking for midicase's app.

Thank Mike Goins for that. More features to come, hopefully, like parameter edit onscreen. (Filter, Attack/Decay, etc)

Awesome piece of software though, especially considering it's free!!
