Track features
Setting the track type
You can set the track type in the Type field in the MAIN
page. There are two types of track: DRUM and MIDI.
They are called DRUM track and MIDI track respectively.
Below are the differences of each track type.
DRUM Select this track type when you play the
MPC1000’s internal sampler by hitting
pads. The DRUM track data will be man-
aged per pad.
MIDI Select this track type when you use the
MPC1000 as a MIDI sequencer with ex-
ternal MIDI devices (MIDI keyboard
etc…). The MIDI track data is managed
per MIDI note event. For more informa-
tion, see the “MIDI sequencer feature”
section on Page 24.
Selecting a program
When you wish to play the internal program with the MPC1000
In the Pgm: field, select the internal program loaded
in the internal memory by turning the DATA wheel.
You can play the samples in the selected program
by hitting the pads. If you select “OFF” or “No.”,
the MPC1000 does not play the internal programs/
samples, but instead will ‘trigger‘ an external sound
module such as a synth.
MIDI Program/Bank changes will also be transmit-
ted to the external sound module.
• Setting the MIDI Program number on an Internal Program
You can set the MIDI Program Number to transmit
to an external MIDI sound module when the sequence
is selected. When you select “No.” in the Pgm: field,
the MIDI Program number field will appear in the
right side of the Pgm: field. You can set the MIDI Pro-
gram Number from 1 to 128. The selected MIDI Pro-
gram Number will be transmitted from the selected
MIDI OUT in Midi field when the sequence is selected
or the [PLAY START] key is pressed.
