How to fix notes to the same length (D)

Is it possible to fix all your notes to a certain length? For instance if I play the piano on every 1/8th note, and want each note to cut out at the same time.

As of right now, I have to go into STEP EDIT and manually change each note to the same length.... Its the "D" in step edit mode....

By piano you mean a piano sample?
There is a trick to shorten the duration: Use an empty pad and press it every time you want the note to stop.
To make the duration bigger i guess you have to use the step edit mode.

No Im not talking about samples. Im talking about when I actually play the piano.... hard to explain I guess

If your playing piano samples, then step edit like you said or change program edit params of the entire program.

You didn't even say HOW or WHAT machine your using for the piano, there are possibly
different answers for different setups?!?! (midi kybd), what?

on you for action and resolution.

Big ups.

go to seq edit mode pad13 - page 36 of the manual:

You can change the Duration of any note event.
01. Select the Edit field in the EVENT page of the SEQ
EDIT mode, and select DURATION.
The various fields necessary for changing the duration
will be displayed.
02. In the time field and the Notes field, select the region
that you wish to edit.
03. In the Edit sq field and the Tr field on right, select the
sequence and track that you wish to edit.
In the Edit sq field and the Tr field, you can select
ALL by turning the DATA wheel. When you select
ALL, the MPC1000 will change the Duration of the
sequence and all its track.
04. In the MODE field, select how you want to change
the Duration.
ADD VALUE : Adds the value selected in the
Value: field to the note.
SUB VALUE : Subtracts the value selected in
the Value: field from the note.
MULTI VAL% : Multiplies the Velocity (percent)
by the value selected in
the Value: field.
SET TO VALUE : Sets the note to the Velocity selected
in the Value: field..

Oh that sneaky ole owners manual.
