I was wondering being a newbie and all....is it possible to use a full midi keyboard and control one sound (a piano sound....rhodes.....bass guitar) and record it onto a track.............................I guess it would be like having one sample and being able to play it on every key on the keyboard............I have been searching for an answer for a min now and have been unsuccessful.........HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP

no that doesnt solve it because i am looking to use any kind of board with midi to play the sounds that are in my MPC1000....for example if I load up a guitar sample on my MPC1000 I wanna be able to play it on every key of my Yamaha S03 and still be able to record the sequence into my MPC1000

gotta make a program that is chromatic and has your sample on every single one of the 64 pads.

next, pitch A01 down to the lowest note you want to be able to play and D16 to the highest. now fill in the space in between!

9 hours from now, when you're finished making your pgm, you'll be able to play it via midi.

Antonym is right. this is the only way you can do it, other ways are by using the NN-XT Digital Sampler in Reason 2 or 3 and making it Auto Map you sample to all the keys then trigger it that way making sure the midi signal passes thru the mpc then to reason.

there are some ways to save time in the long run::

once you do it for one program then save that program as a template to use a starting point next time, then the midi notes are already set right...

then u can get fast at adjusting the tuning from -30 to +30 or whatever and it only takes a minute.
