Arrange the seq's of your beat in song mode, then convert the song to a seq. Then go back to the main screen and select your song seq. Go to the record screen and change your input setting from ANALOG to MAIN OUTS. Press RECORD and then press the play button. After the song has finisher playing, keep it and go to TRIM mode. Your new beat is there. Then just go to SAVE and save it to your card. You can put it on your computer from there.

Yeah, you just can't use the MP as a card reader cause it has no usb connection, but you can save it on your card and use a seperate card reader.

Really? My boi said he could do that. And he told me that like 2 days ago. Cause I said I didn't think he could, than he checked and said yessir.

By thesis88 Sun Jun 17, 2007 5:37 pm
hmm, how do you change the input option? it's not giving me any other options besides 'analog'.. I pushed Shift Sample to bring this up

By thesis88 Sun Jun 17, 2007 5:39 pm
damn.. well, can you do this on the 1000 at least?

If you highlight it and it don't say MAIN OUTS than I guess you can't. I haven't done it on the 2k so I don't know for a fact, but my boi said he could. And I know for sure that the 1k can cause I do it all the time.

no, the 2k/2kxl cannot resample their main outs.

fukk what your boy said, deal within the real and live with that.
