aight read the manauls of both.. got the config off on the micron..

i have a micron midi out to midi in (1) on the mpc
then i have mpc midi out (b) to micron midi in.

all i'm tryin to do is record some bass lines to my beat..
i'm record the bass lines on track 5 of my sequence...drums on 1 snares on 2 sample on 3 and hi hat on 4....

i play back my sequence n its al there.... but SOON as i turn off the micron i lose my bass lines..

i know midi sends data NOT audio.. but i hav it hooked up per the mpc manual, it says to record sounds from a midi keyboard using the mpc as a sequencer section, i believe pg 49.. i'm at the public library so i ain't hav my manual here right now...

i jus want to be able to record the ish n have it on the mpc w/o havin to always have the micron on?

cuz i evne tried to resample it into the mpc everythign came thru minus my bass lines.. so i can't even record it as a wav to xfrd to computer..

2. also the midi stuff only seems to work if i put it on channel 1b.... is that right?

3. when i go to mode>program and i start playin keys on the micron i see the pads change to correspond wit the micron keys, is there a method to that madness? ex. 2 DEEP bass lines might be in bank b and another 3 are in bank D, it would be nice if all the deep ones are in one bank and the higher ones in another bank? is that possible?

thanks yall...


help me clear this out...


keep it gully

so ur sequencing on the mpc

where is the bass sound coming from?

if its the micron then of course its not gonna play it when the micron is off

also in the track if u set it to 1a (if thats how ur setup) that will play the microns present pg. if u split the keys 1a will play the latter and 2a will play the 2nd pg

get me?

The mpc is only triggering the midi notes that are coming from the Micron so once you turn the micron off the sound stops. If you want that bassline to stay then you can sample the bassline into the mpc and loop it to your drums or you can chop the sample of your bassline up and replay it and save it with your drums and other sounds coming from the mpc.

......but to do that you will need to connect the audio out from the micron to the audio in of the mpc. that's with audio cables by the way.

hope this helps.
