Is there a way to pan when sampling?

I have a turntable without onboard panning controls, and when samping - especially older recordings, it would be good to separate the left and right channels to assess the mix and how easy it will be to, for example, separate the bass track.

You can 'monitor' when in sample record mode, but I can't see any way to pan from either the MPC or the software. I guess I could do it with the Mac's sound mixer, but thats a bit of a pain.

I just feel that I'm missing something stupidly obvious, and I know you can do it in prog edit once you have the sample, but is there a way of panning when monitoring?

Thanks

I have the same problem. My ren wont pan when I'm sampling. wtf

Yeah you both have the same problem you didn't RTFM.
You have a Left and Right buttons that you can engage and disengage.
The problem here,that should be solved in 1.8 as mentioned by masada in his first vid, is that even if you engage only one channel it will record in stereo, one side muted, instead of mono.

Lol. Mine didn't come with a manual. Just a gay poster type **** thing that covered the basics. Thanks for that tip.

Hahaha just click the help button on the software and there it is your mpc manual in pdf

Hehe - I wasn't aware of the PDF manual either. Just the 'gay poster'

So now I see how obvious it is in the software. Presumably no way to do it via the MPC itself? (I will look in the manual too, honest!)

Thanks to all

just sample. then only use the left or the right side of sample...
