lets get the details down first

u have ur V midi up to the mpc and u are recording a performance either from the pads or keyboard and when ur finish

u want to record ur midi performance direct to track as audio?

or are u tryin to direct record ur live performance straight to track?

yup

i have the module not keyboard so the mpc is playin amidi track to which we are direct recording just the digital out of the xt when you hit the dir rec recording button

while im waiting lemme break down the sikness IF it works.

Lets say u own the 1k first os and the v-synth xt sound module.

u find out roland duped u because u can only rec one card at a time and there are 3 different cards inside the xt.

u say man i wish this 1k could record a slaved track of audio/midi from the xt like my protools or sonar!

THEN! i could hit da touchscreen on tha xt and go to the vocalizer card and add some choruses to the next midi track on the 1k to control the AUDIO in the xt!

Sooooo.....ya man who uses tha 1k also says why dont u use tha sample in and trim it and put in on a pad and sequence it!..SIMPLE!

but Mr MPC8000 said hek naw! why cant i just sync the two record into the main screen and BAM! lets got o the D50 card next..next track...vocal card...and so on just like multitrackers should.

ENTER THA MPC2500

The Direct Recording feature will allow you to record a signal from “ROCORD IN” while the sequence is playing back. This
makes it much easier to ensure the sample you record will match the Tempo of the sequence....

BUT THATS NOT ENUF 4 ME......
THIS WAS!!!

If you select YES in the Record event field, the recording
start timing is written as track event in the
sequence.

MEANING YOU PROBABLY JUST HELPED ME ANSWER MY OWN QUESTION!

now i need u to tell me how to correct the start point.

how do YOU do it my dude?

MPV-XT

whenever I direct record something from my proteus 2000 module, to adjust the start point I just go into the trim screen and adjust the start point

WHOOOPPS!!! FOUND IT!!

Yo I want to appologize to any i might have offended the next thing to do is to use the Continuous sample track feature but there is only 1 per song?

THAAAATSS why jahrome was like they need more continous sample tracks.

o no!

AKAI!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING???

I WAS THA MAAAANN!!

And you let Roland come in and straight put a vs2400 in a dithered down mpc4000 look-a-like to smack you in tha azz!!!

I hope yall opium headed fools is pround of this half.........lemme hold my fingers down.................................

somebody tell me there is a way to sync a recording tight as you would to a computer or imma go buy me a big head computer with the stuff in it already! namely tha mv.

i cant beleive yall gone let my buy ANOTHER mv. sh**** too big man!

must be meant to be ill get a 2500 next year this time when they finally update it an fix da bugs yada yada yada.

glad u found ur answer

You guys are hilarious going back and forth

mpvxt....you found your answer?

The new OS for the 2500 should be here soon for us that have been waiting for almost 5 months...shhit..our warranty period is almost half-up. I think Akai should extend our warranty everytime that put out a bug fix within the first year.

were da hek u been man!!! Daaag! had to vent 4 a minute man. Im kinda glad u wasnt arount to see nuna this!

i fell skitso man.

now can i getta translation from jap to english sombody on tha new features b4 i go to work at 2pm eastern atl time? its 1:14 now.

again if they can record and play back more continuous tracks imma chill!

YEAH BETTIS!! ONE 4 DA THUMB!!

now i need one 4 da DRUM!

MPV-XT

mpvxt, i hope you got things sorted.

but you should know you came across as pretty damn rude to people in this thread; people that were genuinely trying to take time out of thier own lives to help you.

i appologize.

MPV-XT

Im guessin you have to set in the sample page the most sensitive threshhold THEN go hit the record in dir rec so when you press play start you should have the sample start on the one thus eleminating the immediate need 4 a multi-countinous track update.

When using direct record to track...is it using up sample time on the 2500. Or is it using hard disk space?

Direct Record is nothing else then sampling, so yes it uses sample time.
