I have an XL with an internal zip250 drive and scsi cd-rom and was wondering if there was any way I could increase the volume level of my chops after sampling? I tried increasing the volume via the mixer screen and pad parameters to no avail. I also experimented with converting them to stereo, but still not loud enough. I didn't try re-sampling. Is there another way to do this INSIDE the MPC besides just sampling again with the "rec gain" turned up to about 3 o'clock?

Thanks in advance. Peace

I'm not sure, but is there a Normalize function in the XL? If so, that's what you're looking for. Apart from sampling it loud enough in the first place.

Thanks Stilo for replying...... i know i should have sampled in loud enough in the first place, but the fact remains.... i didn't. That's why i thought i would ask the community! I went through the manual and did certain things, but it still didn't increase the volume level! I guess i'll just have to sample and make my chops again which can be a pain sometimes, especially if you feel you have "perfect" chops already!! No biggie though. It just trips me out on how i can get the "entire" forum too view my sh!t, but can only manage one response!! I guess people consider this question assinine. No sweat. It's all good. I'm a noob still trying to learn some sh!t!! Sorry if i offended anyone with this question. Thanks again Stilo for responding and i'll check the manual for that normalize function!! Peace
