Mid/side and phase inversion

In the next few days my first MPC arrives. It's an MPC4000 and i'm super hyped to get it jacked into my Cirklon and make some oots oots.

I'm doing a bit of research and was looking into accomplishing something I do easily with a DAW. Isolating sounds in a sample. Say for example I have a chop in which the drums and bass is mono, but the horns are stereo. Using a plug-in, I'd put the width into mono and flip the side out. Canceling everything in the centre and taking all left on the sides and summing them together. I'd have the horns solo.

Can this kind of thing be done in an MPC?

sample in stereo, you can seperate the file into 2 mono tracks then. in old recordings some instruments be panned to the left, others to the right and so on. by just splitting the audio you may get better control over different sounds

you can also sample and chop on the computer then import the chops into your mpc.

or just sample on your computer and then import and chop on mpc.
