Changing the order of tracks
(TRACK MOVE)
When you are creating a song by combining several short
sequences, normally you would use the SONG feature to
play back sequence in the specified order. The MPC1000
can convert the song data with short sequences to one long
sequence. To do this, you need to arrange the order of the
tracks in each sequence. In this section, you will learn how
to use the track move function that allows you to change
the order of the tracks in a sequence.
You can set the track move in the TrMOVE (Track move)
page of the SEQ EDIT mode, which can be accessed by press-
ing the [MODE] key and then the [PAD 13].
01.
In the SEQ EDIT mode, press the [F3] (TrMOVE) key.
The TrMOVE (Track move) page will be displayed.
02. In the Sq field, select the track that you wish to change
the order.
03. In the Reference sq field, select the sequence to be
used as the reference when changing the order.
For example, if you want other tracks to follow the
order in sequence 01, you should select sequence
01 in the Reference sq field.
04. Using the down cursor key, move the cursor to the
track list.

You can scroll through the list by turning the DATA wheel.

position.
