long time no see! you've been missed.

Oh yea was focused on tracks and was on OS1, I only plunged into OS2 a few weeks ago still haven't actually made a full track in OS2 but cant wait to finish up some of my OS1 projects so I can move to OS2 fulltime

hope you well Nym, keeping the boards active im sure

In the track mute screen be able to immediately mute a track when you accidentally started a wrong track.
I sometimes do that during a liveset. I unmute a track of a wrong song. Then I mostly quickly put the channel down
a my mixer. Would be great if you could do something like shift pad in the mute screen to stop only that track.

When you record your tracks turn your sample to note on. That way if you unmute a track and its the wrong one it'll mute as soon as you hit the mute.




As for the feature .. I'd like to have GPE control of lfo's.

My wish is for a more "normal" sustain pedal behaviour when playing the internal sampler.

The functionality is probably almost implemented since playback of a performance done with the sustain pedal are correctly played back, at least when "Sustain pedal to duration" is set to YES. It's only during recording it doesn't work.
=============================================

So this is what's needed for my wish to come true:
CASE 1 - Sustain pedal to duration: YES
REC
In this mode the messages will be recorded correctly. Nothing needs to be done.
PLAY
Playback and play during recording has to add functionality so that all notes on the current track that has sent a note off (are released during sustain pedal on) will be realeased when sustain pedal (*) goes off.

CASE2 - Sustain pedal to duration: NO
REC/PLAY This one is trickier since the internal sampler would have to recognice damper events. Focusing on case 1 seems more important than implementing this one as well.

[*] Sustain pedal is CC64 (often called "damper")

In "Next Seq" mode, I'd love the ability to switch between 'END OF SEQUENCE'/'IMMEDIATELY START' and 'IMMEDIATELY PLAY' modes while playing.

Yes, but that isn't really a handy way of recording since you have to hold the pad all the time. I record in a different way. For my live set's I only use the MPC to play looped samples. So while preparing the set, I use the oldscool stepedit and only have to hit the pad a couple of times or just once and copy/paste the note(sample) a couple of time.
Some samples don't work good with note on. Then it's difficult to release the pad on the right moment of the end of the sequence. So I don;'t prefer using note on for all samples.

Maybe in track mute screen, shift pad could be a volume mute.

bring back the akai girl who used to warm you lol

if JJ is going to add any more MIDI CC in stuff:

control over current PROGRAM play mode: (MONO/POLY) would be great.
also:
TEMPO
(would be nice to be able to control this via an external midi controller instead of using an external sequencer or tying up a Q-LINK)

Does JJ read this topic or is someone sending him a list?

Requested: "Whole" selection for velocity layer 2 and 3.

Track Mixer needs to output midi CC 7 Volume (MSB) on midi-out-channels
in order to make multitimbral soundmodules work with mpc...

Pan would be nice too..

midi channel volume message = Bn 07 vv
midi pan message = Bn 0A vv (0=left, 127=right, 64=center)

thanks

What do you mean exactly? You can use a multibral module without any problem since every sound has it's own midi channel.

And for every channel in multitimbral modules, there is "channel volume" which can be controlled from the host via simple midi message.

What do you mean you can use it without problems? Imagine using mpc itself without opportunity to raise or lower channel levels?

What i mean is that if you have a INSTR program in OS2, you can use track mixer to control it's level.
But if you have MIDI program in OS2, Track mixer volume doesn't do anything.

I know how to set up midi etc etc, but why doesn't the track mixer send out volume(msb)-midi-messages when channel type is MIDI, this way you could use track mixer also when you use midi setup...

os1's mainscreen "velocity" parameter was somehow linked to send out some midi data, but i guess it affected actually to channel pressure instead of volume (which is of course not the way it should be)

Desperately hoping for either a PAD MUTE or an EXPLODE feature with the new XL OS. The more I think about it the more I think that PAD MUTE would be the best. As long as it has it's own screen and can be recorded in the sequence, it would be perfest. That way you could keep everything on one chanel and be able to see all of the pads in the main screen. Then just set up a song and unmute the individual pads as needed. This would make the Mp sequence in a much more familiar way to me... My 2 cents.
