Is it possible to adjust the amount of bass or treble of individual tracks? Seems like something we should be able to do... I'm about to return this if I can't do simple EQ :( please someone help a brotha out I want to keep this beauty! :worthy:

There are 2 EQ effects and numerous filters on the MPC, they can be applied per pad, per program, per track or on the master.

Have you ever tried to insert an FX to a pad/program/Master?If you do you’ll see a PEQ 2-Band, 2-Shelf and a PEQ 4-Band parametric EQ’s (page 306 in 2.2 manual)
Cheers!

Bro when I said use the knobs to "MIX" you hold down shift to get intricate, like in values going from 1,2,3,4,5 etc, without using shift and turning the DATA knob you will go from values like 1, 5, 9, 14, it skips numbers. I never went into EQing, on this unit. If you want to mix you have to go into each pad and use it's mixer slider.

You shouldn't return the unit because you can't EQ, better yet if EQing was very important to you should have done your research. I don't rely on mixing, effects or mixing on this unit because I do that else where. I know its there if I ever need it, and use my professional Technics to get a decent mix.
