Entering an event (Step recording)
In the STEP EDIT mode, when you hit a pad, or when the MPC1000 receives MIDI data from an external device, you can record the event in the current time position (the time displayed in the Now field). Move the event to the desired time position by moving through the event list with the up/ down cursor keys, or by setting the time position in the Now field, and you can add events to the desired time position one by one. This method, recording each event individually when MPC1000 is in the stop mode, is called step recording. 01. In the STEP EDIT mode, Press the [REC] key or the [OVER DUB] key. The LED of the [OVER DUB] key will be lit, which indicates that you can now enter events by hitting a pad. 02. Move through the list with the up/down cursor keys, or select the Now field, to select the time position to insert event. 03. Hit a pad. The event of the pad will be recorded. 04. Press the [STOP] key. The LED of the [OVER DUB] key will be turned off and you can finish the step recording.
TC VALUE% When set to 100%, the value set in the timing correct will be entered in the D (duration) field, regardless of the length that you actually pressed the pad (MIDI keyboard). Selecting the TC VALUE% will display the field, where you can set the percentage of the duration to apply to the current timing correct value. (Ex. 50% will set duration to one-half timing correct value.)

Inserting an event

During the step recording, you can enter events using the insert function as well as using pads and MIDI keyboard. 01. Move to the time position that you wish to insert the event, and press the [F5] (INSERT) key. The Insert Event window will open. 02. In the Type field, select the event to insert, and press the [F5] (DO IT) key. The selected event will be inserted.
Hint: After done the Step recording, you can go back the previous status by pressing the [UNDO] key.

For example: The track data of MIDI output channels 1A-16A will be merged to tracks 1-16. The track data of MIDI output channels 1B-16B will be merged to track 17-32.
Note : If the track is set to OFF in Midi field in the MAIN page, the data in the track will not be merged after Convert Song to Seq. If you wish to convert the tracks for an internal program, set the MIDI output channel for the track temporary.
04. Press the [F5] (DO IT) key The song will be converted to a sequence.
03. Press the [F4] (CLOSE) key. This closes the window.
Converting a song to a sequence
You can convert a song to one long sequence. You can record or over dub to the converted sequence in the MAIN mode like other sequences. You can also edit the sequence in the STEP EDIT mode or the SEQ EDIT mode. 01. In the SONG mode, press the [F4] (CONVRT) key. The Convert Song to Seq window will be displayed.
Note : During Song Conversion (When selected REFERENCED TO 1ST SQ and MUTE TRACKS IGNORED)
When you convert a song, the specific settings used in each track within the sequence, such as track type, MIDI channel setting, selection of the program, etc, will be set to the values that you set in step 1. If the track setting of the sequence in another step is different from those in the step 1, the song may not be converted properly. To avoid this, it is better to make the track settings and the order of each sequence the same. For more information on how to change the order of the tracks, see the Changing the order of the tracks section on page 30.
02. In the From song field, select the song that you wish to convert. 03. In the To seq field, select the destination sequence. 04. In the Track status field, select the track status after conversion to a sequence. REFERENCED TO 1ST SQ : The setting data (such as MIDI output, Mixer setting, Tempo, etc) of each track in the 1st Sequence of the Song will be used for all tracks in the following sequences. MUTE TRACKS IGNORED : The muted tracks in the sequences of the Song will not be converted. MERGED ON MIDI CHANNEL The track in the sequence of the Song will be merged to the track according to the MIDI output channel.

In this section, you will learn about various functions of the pad. The MPC1000 will play the velocity in 16 levels. The MPC1000 will play the pitch in 16 levels by semitone. The MPC1000 will play the filter cutoff value in 16 levels. The MPC1000 will play the layer value in 16 levels. The MPC1000 will play the decay value in 16 levels. The MPC1000 will play the attack value in 16 levels.

FILTER

Playing with pads
By assigning the sounds in memory to a pad, you can play those sounds. Below are some useful functions when playing with pads.

ATTACK

Switching pad banks
The MPC1000 has 16 pads, but you can play up to 64 samples by switching between the four pad banks. The LED of the currently selected pad bank (from banks A through D) is turned on. By pressing the desired [PAD BANK] key, you can switch pad banks.
When TUNE is selected, the Original key pad field will be displays. In this field, you can specify the pad that plays the original key pad. 04. Press the [F5] (TurnON) key. The window closes and the LED of the [16 LEVELS] key is turned on, which indicates you can play in 16 levels. Pressing the [16 LEVELS] key turns its LED off and deactivates the 16 levels function.
Tips: When you select VELOCITY in the Type field, the velocity of the pad event can be played in 16 levels, but if you select an option other than VELOCITY, the note variation value will be played in 16 levels. The note variation data can change the value of a specific parameter when you play the pads sample. For example, if you select TUNE in the Type field, when you hit the pad, the note variation data of TUNE will be sent to the sampler section with the pad event, and the TUNE value will be changed according to the pad you played. During Sequence recording, the Note variation data will be recorded with the note event and you can play back the sequence exactly what was played. The note variation value is also used for the Q- Link slider function.
Full level function (FULL LEVEL key)
You can control the level of the sound by the velocity used to hit the pads, but if you press the [FULL LEVEL] key, the MPC1000 will play the sample at the maximum level regardless of the velocity. If you press the [FULL LEVEL] key, the LED will be lit, and the full level function will be activated. To deactivate this function, press the [FULL LEVEL] key again.

Chapter 7: Functions of a pad
Setting the track mute with pads
You can mute/unmute tracks in real time during playback by hitting the pads. This is useful when you have several instruments assigned to different tracks, so that you can play a song and switch tracks on/off using the pads while playing back your sequence. Pressing the [TRACK MUTE] key brings up the track mute page.

Solo function

With the Solo function, you can play back only the selected track. 01. Hit the pad that corresponds to the track that you wish to play, while pressing the [F6] (SOLO) key.

This is useful when you record sounds directly from the CD player. You cannot monitor the input signal. For example: when you send the signal to the MPC1000 through a mixer, both the source sound and the monitored sound may be sent to the mixer. To avoid this, you should set this to OFF.
Peak hold/Reset peak feature
The level meter in the RECORD page has the peak hold feature. This is a useful feature for adjusting the signal level during recording. Normally, the display of the level meter changes in real time according to the level
Chapter 11 : Editing a sample
In this section, you will learn about the TRIM mode, where you can set the samples start/end points, or the loop.
Setting the start / end points for the sample
The start/end points sets the part of the sample data, which will actually be played back. The recorded sample may have an unnecessary part at the beginning, which may make it more difficult to place the sound in the correct spot timing when hitting the pad. You can fix this problem by adjusting the start point. You can also adjust both the start and end points to play only a part of the phrase. If the sample has empty parts at the end, which consumes unnecessary memory, you can delete the empty parts by adjusting the end point and using the edit feature. Start/end points are displayed in sample points. The sample point is the minimum unit used for sample editing. The MPC1000 has the 44100 sample points per second.
About the waveform display
The TRIM page displays the waveform of the sample selected in the Sample field. It displays the waveform of the whole sample, with the parts set by start/end points highlighted. If you select a stereo sample, you can select the channel (LEFT/RIGHT) to display in the View field.
Adjusting the start point
01. Press the [MODE] key and then the [PAD 6] (TRIM). When you press the [MODE] key, its LED will blink. Press the [PAD 6] while the [MODE] keys LED is blinking to display the TRIM page. 02. Select the Sample field and select a sample you wish to edit. The Sample field is located in the upper left corner of the screen, which displays the sample name. It displays the waveform of the selected sample. 03. Select the St (start) field and adjust the start point. You can change the start point by turning the DATA wheel. If you press the left/right cursor key while holding the [SHIFT] key, you can select the digit with the DATA wheel. You can also enter the value directly with using the [NUMERIC] key and pads. When you press the [NUMERIC] key, its LED will blink, which indicates you can enter number with pads. 04. Hit the pad to check the start point. When you hit the pad, the MPC1000 plays the sample. The playback method varies depending on the pad. If you hit the [PAD 14] (PLAY TO), the MPC1000 will play the sample before the start point. If you hit the [PAD 15] (PLAY FROM), the MPC1000 will play the sample from the start point. If you hit the [PAD 16] (PLAY ALL), the MPC1000 will play the whole sample regardless of the start/end point settings. If you hit any pad from the [PAD 1] to [PAD 12], the MPC1000 will play from the start point to the end point.

New name field: You can enter the new name for the sample. [F2] (PLAY) : You can audition the new sample. [F3] (OVER W) : You can delete the original sample and keep the new sample. [F4] (RETRY) : Returns to Sample Edit window without keeping the new sample. [F5] (KEEP) : You can keep the new sample with the name set in the New Name field.
Dividing a phrase sample to several regions
The MPC1000 will allow you to divide a phrase sample into several regions. (Divides a sample to several regions of equal length.) The divided sample can be used the following two ways. SLICED SAMPLES will assign each divided region to a pad. PATCHED PHRASE is one sample which has the divided regions and the sequence data for playing the divided regions. You can change the tempo freely when playing the sequence.
Note : If you use a stereo sample, only the left channel is used.

The Program window will open. 03. Press [F2] (DELETE) key The Delete Program window will open. 04. Press [F5] (DO IT) key. This deletes the selected program.
Editing the sound of a sample
Each pad has a parameter to change the sound, which is called Filter. You can edit the sound of the sample by editing this parameter. This is done in the FILTER page of the PROGRAM mode.

04. Select the Freq field and set the cut off frequency. The cut off frequency is the frequency that triggers the filter. When you select the LOW PASS filter, if you set the cut off frequency too low, the sound will seem dull. This is because most of the higher frequencies of sound are cut off by the filter. When you select the HIGH PASS filter, if you set the cut off frequency too high, most of the lower frequencies are cut off, which results in a more hollow sound. 05. Set the Reso field to adjust the resonance of the filter.
Each pad has two filters. You can create a more complicated sound by combining these two filters. Also you can link these two filters to make a more powerful filter.

Setting the Filter

01. In the PROGRAM mode, press the [F2] (FILTER) key. The FILTER page will be displayed. You can select the program to edit in the Pgm field. 02. Select the pad you wish to edit for the sound by hitting it. The Pad field displays the pad number of the selected pad. To the right of the pad number, the name of the sample assigned to the pad is displayed. 03. Select the Type field of filter 1 (to the left) and select which filter type to use. The MPC1000 has several types of filter to edit the sound. With these filters, you can cut or boost the specific frequency of the sound. LOW PASS This filter cuts out the high frequencies and passes the low frequencies. This filter is frequently used in the electronic instruments such as synthesizers. This filter cuts out the low frequencies and passes the high frequencies. The filter passes the specific frequencies and cuts out the other frequencies.
If you set the resonance value at a larger value, the frequencies set in the Freq field will be boosted more. It is hard to describe the effect of the resonance, because it differs depending on the cut off frequency and filter type. Experiment several settings in the Type field, Freq field, and Reso field.
Note : If you notice distorted sound while using the FILTER, you can use the Att parameter to adjust the level of the signal sent to the filter, and remove the unwanted distortion.
06. Set the filter of the filter 2 (to the right) in the same way.
Tips : You do not have to edit both filter 1 and 2. If you do not need the filter, set the Type field to OFF.

Linking the two filters

You can link the two filers to make it as one powerful filter. To link the filters, select the LINK in the Type field for the filter 2 (in the right). The MPC1000 will ignore the settings in the Freq field and the Reso field for the filter 2 and apply the same setting as those for the filter 1, which provides you with a powerful filter effect.

Tips : The ROOT folder is the top directory of the memory card. There is no other directory above the ROOT folder.

Selecting a file

To select a file to load, proceed as follows: 01. Press the [MODE] key and the [PAD 2] (LOAD). The LOAD page will be displayed. To load a file from the memory card, insert the compact flash card in the memory card slot.
05. Select the file you wish to load. 06. Press the [F5] (LOAD) key. The MPC1000 will start loading the data. The next procedures differ depending on the type of selected file.
Tips : You can also select files and switch directories in the File field of the LOAD page. You can select a folder at the same directory level that the currently selected folder is located in, by turning the DATA wheel in the File field. If you have selected a folder in the File filed, you can move to the lower directory by pressing the right cursor key. You can also move to the upper directory by pressing the left cursor key in the File field.
02. Select the LOAD from field and select the memory you wish to load the data from. INTERNAL MEMORY The MPC1000 will load the data from the internal preset memory. Normally, when you switch on the MPC1000, it will load the data from the preset memory, but you can load these files individually by selecting INTERNAL MEMORY in this field.
