Hey Guys,

I'm using the 2500 to eq the drums I sample (i don't eq it in software because i'm not really a protools guy), however is there a way of saving those eq'ed drums so I don't lose them when I turn the MPC back on?

Any feedback on saving eq'ed drums to the MPC would be most appreciated

Either save the whole project or resample the drum sound and save that.

So exactly how do I resample that newly eq'ed drum sound into the 2500?

I'd figure if i put it in protools, bounce that and convert it into a WAV, then dump it back in the 2500, that would work,
but the eq'd drum would be in a much lower quality from when I bounced it out of protools.

Resampling is in the manual homie.

Go to Rec Mode and switch Input to Main Out.
