melodies like battlecat

hey guys i got my mpc 1k about a month ago and yesterday bought a yamaha mo6. the problem that im having is i recording more than one melody into the mpc. i can do my drums and then the initial synth melody but when i try to record another synth pattern the sounds used for the first melody gets changed to the current sounds being used. i hope im being clear. ive been searching in the forums for a couple of days which is how i found out how to record my synth in the first place. i also tried checking my mpc ebook. can somebody please help, i know that this may seem trivial to most of you. thanks in advance. i want to do it like battlecat did in his cali iz active video.

you need to set up multiple voices. then assign a different midi track to each vioce.
check the mo manual.

thanks man im about to try that right now. i got so many manuals in front of me right now i cant see.

hopefully it won't be to hard to sort out.

if you're lazy, like me, instead of sorting out different voices and different midi channels, i just sample my first melody, assign it to a pad. then play the next melody, sample it...etc.

change the midi channel...

Use the MO 6 in Pattern mode then adjust the MIDI channels on the MPC and MO 6 accordingly
