MPC-SAMPLES samples volume level

Hey, guy's and gal's, I purchased the mpc-samples "MPC Keys" from them about a week ago. I am using the latest JJOS1, and it seems that the samples in the “keys” patches are not as loud as the original sample that come with the mpc. So for instance, I can load up a drum program and turn the volume up where it is killin' my speakers, then switch to the GRAND piano program and the volume is way down, where I would have to turn it up some more. Therefore, when I record a song, the beat is so loud compare to the keys part that it is un-usable.

My Question is whether I can turn the volume up on a single track or maybe there is a way to turn the gain up on a whole program? I know I can use the mixer but that would only up the volume on a single pad at a time, and on a piano that would not be feasible.

In JJ OS you can change the volumes of all the pads at the same time. You can do this with all of your program settings. See GPE Mode which is MODE and pad 11.



Mixer level settings appear when you press F5 on the above screen:


You can access sample level by pressing window on the far left column on the first picture. Press whole if you want to change all at the same time.



Its my hunch that the sample level in this screen is less than 1oo in your quiet program.

Man, Thanks, that will help a bunch, I really appreciate the info. When get home I will try it out.


Thank, Que

I appreciate your help, got home tried it and it work perfectly...Que

cool glad to hear it. was it the sample level?

Yes it was, it was set to 70. When I changed everything to 100 it was to loud and caused some distortion, so I back it down to about 85 and everything was pretty even, and sound great.

Thanks again, Que

cool, no worries.
(the sample level thing depends on what OS the program was originally created on.)
