Reviews and questions about the entry-level MPC500

Hi,
I need a little help with the 12 levels option.

Lets say I assign a piano sound, hit the pad and it lets the note/piano sample ring out. How can I get it to play short, say, as long as I hold the pad down to keep it from ringing out?
Thanks in advance!

Go to Mode:Program, and hit the pad that has the OG sample (the one you're 12 leveling), change the part that says "One Shot" to "Note On". This should do what you're talking about. Also, you can change the decay so that it plays a little bit longer than however long you hold it down for when it's on "Note On".

Thanks for the quick response!
I'll have to try this in the next couple of days when I have time. Hopefully I'll let you know how it goes.
