its true - the sequencer running fast enough can literally turn the box into a granular synthesiser.
16 levels + 3 pads gives you just as much note control as an auto-chromatic program, with the benefit of being able to adjust parameters for all notes much easier (you only need to make 3 adjustments vs 48).
you do lose 'polyphony' though as you can only play one note per pad per track.
also when you find the perfect loop point you can really start tweaking new instruments.
ps. great vid - great melody.

Never thought about this. I just tried it by playing a Kickdrum on every step (TC OFF of course) with different tuning on different BPM. Damn glitchy sounds I never heard of the MPC. I also added distortion & reverb. Now that is noise and fun
I will try some longer deversified samples too and play with the velocity & velocity to sample start function
Thank you for this insiration.
1:30 min of pure noise:
