Note variation slider cannot edit effects parameters, just the ones you mentioned - decay, tuning, attack and filter.
To make sure if you have effects board (eb16) installed, open the bottom of mpc and look if it's there, simple. The correct place where it should be is shown in the manual.
I assume that you are using 2000xl model, I don't know where effects board in 2000 model is.

Make your bass note loop.

Set the nv slider to TUNE for that bass note.

Note: It is NOT realtime tuning.

It is ONLY when the loop retriggers that you will hear the new nv slider positioning change.

It's a retrigger tuning and NOT realtime.
