I'm new to the MPC and am wondering how some of you filter your samples to just get the bass, like just the lows. I've been messing around with the effects for a minute but can't get that great of a s sound.

What do y'all do?

what i usualy do is go into mode/program, select your sample, put a low pass filter on it to aabout 10 to 25 or whatever you feel sounds right and use the 4band eq effect to bring the bass up and eq it.

i reckon hes sampling good drum loops (for some tracks anyway).
and not overchopping.
Stab in the dark - if you find out let me know! :lol:
