no.

that answer also comes with knowing the limitations of your gear.

If you have a lot of patience then you can make a new program in which you have a reversed sample of each sample used in your original sequence. Now make a copy of your sequence and reverse the position of each event in the sequence ( first event of the track becomes the last event of the track etc ...) in step edit mode. If you now play this new sequence then you will have this sequence reversed.

If you expect there to be a simpler method then I can only tell you to read previous answers.

That's why I started the explanation with "If you have a lot of patience then ..." :)
I thought it was a good example of how to obtain a certain result on the MPC it's just a question of thinking outside the box not much different from this tread : http://www.mpc-forums.com/viewtopic.php?t=48623 :wink:

yeah your right, touche, I did the same thing, but peeps won't try it cause
everyone wants the "quick easy" way to do stuff.

Usually when they are years into it and have explored MUCH of it they sit down to realize you can get past a few limitations with out of the box thinking.

But again, touche my friend.

No pills needed this time around...

You could just sample the sequence, reverse it, load it into the MPC and play it back on one of the pads.

Lazy persons way of doing it.

Yeah I know. Brings is back full circle doesn't it.

I would just do that personally (or do it in the PC).

Me too.
I'd just resample, I'm not lazy but if my sequence has ALOT of stuff in it, step edit - reverse sample resequencing could take a long while.

How do I loop a thread? :lol:

Screen capture the whole thread. Save as jpg. Host the jgp somewhere.
Then you reply into the thread and post the url of the screen capture, adding the html img tags in the front and back. So now when the next person views the thread they'll see the thread and your newest post with the screen capture planted inside of it. Forums loop mode is natively disable so there is no "real" loop mode. Sort of psuedo workaround.

That's my first guess. I got a few more though.
