Sampling at 45 on the MPC2000XL: where can I pitch it down 5

hi mpc-community,

i have one question about the pitchshifing/ tuning of samples.

like the old school producers, i record my samples from vinyl with the turntablespeed at 45 (instead of 33), because of the saving memory and so on...

to the reach the original tune again, you have to pitch the sample 5 halfnotes (steps) down.

but i cant find halfstep tuning. you can tune the sample with the "trim-modus", but i dont know which number is one half note step? i heard that -120 is 3 octaves down.. but i dont know..

thank you for your help!

on the tuning param, 10 is one half step.

thank you very much! where do you got your information?

Trial & error? Experience?

yours ears should be a sufficient tool for achieving this task. Are you tuning in the trim screen or the pad params?

i am tuning in the trimmscreen!

Max out the memory on your 2kXL and be done with it.

I`m doing it for the sound.........
