Hey everyone,

As much as I love my MPC One, there is one mayor function that I miss when comparing it to my old trusted 2500, is the option to change the pitch of samples in program mode. It was so nice to be able to do that when playing around when layering drums.

Now on the One I can edit the pitch of a sample in the sample edit screen, but then I can't hear the results of all the samples under a path until I go back to the program edit screen or the main screen. That would work, but it would be a hassle to go back and for to tune 3 individual kicks, snares and what not.

But perhaps I'm missing something here. Is there a way to change the pitch of a sample in program mode on a MPC One / Live II / X?

Thanx in advance!

Perhaps I'm doing something wrong but I only see pitch in the forth tab of the samples thing, but then i can only choose between 0 and 100 and not the regular -1, -2, +1, +2. And i can't seem to pitch samples down that way...
