Trigger Notes in Step Edit Mode

By mike841 Sun Mar 21, 2021 3:15 am
Hey Gang,

On the MPC 60, in "Step-Edit" (now called "Grid View" on the MPCX), each note would sound as you hit the "<>" buttons.
Any way to get them to do this on the MPCX in Grid View?

List Edit

List Edit is what your looking for.
Events don't sound when you scroll through.
Hit a pad and all those events get highlighted.
Choose to view Notes, automation, aftertouch, ALL, etc... etc...

Sounding off notes as you scroll were useful to visually see what notes were there, on X I hit a pad and all those notes light up. It's easier but without the scrolling audio feedback. I'm ok with how it is now
(I have 2kxl and 4k).

It did take some getting used to but it happened quick. I was ok with many things being "different" than older mpc's, I'm old school and maybe 20% closed minded. Things are more modern and once used to it I was flying around menus same as my older mpc's.

Hey Lampdog,
You read my mind. My first MP was so automatic, I woke up this morning was wondering if I could get use to the new ways.
It's encouraging. Thanks-a-bunch!
