midi

do u use midi? how it works?

MIDI IS THE SENDING AND RECEIVING OF INFORMATION (NOT SOUNDS) BETWEEN TWO OR MORE ELECTRONIC DEVICES. WATCH CLASSICS VIDEO TUTURIAL CAUSE HE EXPLAINS PERFECT. ITS EISIER TO SHOW, BUT IF U HAVE A SPECIFIC QUESTION ASK CAUSE I GOT PRETTY GOOD AT IT, I READ A LOT OF BOOKS ON MIDI. ITS REALY NOT THAT HARD

YES I DO USE MIDI. i HAVE MY SET UP LIKE THIS. MPC IS THE MASTER TO MY 3 SOUND RACKS AND MY OTHER BEAT MACHINE WHICH I USE TO SAMPLE ON SINCE IT GOT CRAZY MEMEORY. i ALSO HAVE A MIDI CONTROLLER WHICH I USE TO ALSO PLAY THE SOUNDS INTO THE MPC FROM THE RACK AND SEQUENCE ON IT. MY CONTROLLER ALSO PLAYS THE SAMPLES OFF OF MY OTHER BEAT MACHINE SO I CAN SEQUENCE INTO THE MPC. IF I WANTED TO I CAN ALSO SLAVE MY COMPUTER TO THE mpc AND PLAY SOUNDS OFF THE COMPUTER AND SEQUENCE INTO THE MPC. ALL THE CONTROLL DOES IS LIKE WHEN U HOOK STUFF UP THROUGH MIDI WITH THE MPC AS THE MASTER, THE SOUNDS FROM THE SLAVE DEVICES SPREAD OUT ACROSS THE PADS ON THE MPC THE CONTROLLER IS JUST ANOTHER WAY TO PLAY THE MPC PADS

i just want to play a melody. for example I have only ONE bass sample and based on this I would like to play a melody- is it possible. do I need midi? will it work like this?

u can either turn the 16 levels on and do it ..... and depending on how long u want each note, u can also loop the bass to make it hold as long as u need it too....or u can do auto chromatic assign...something like that

thx. I will check it! I started to read the tutorial but didn't use 16 level keys... we will see
