37. OVERDUB – Press this button to enable Overdub, which allows you to record note events in a Sequence without

overwriting any previously recorded note events. You can enable Overdub either before or during recording.

38. < / > ( |< / >| ) – Use these buttons to move the audio pointer left/right, one step at a time. Hold LOCATE and

press one of these buttons to move the audio pointer to the previous/next event in the Sequence Grid.

39. << / >> (START/END) – Use these buttons to move the audio pointer left/right, one bar at a time. Hold LOCATE

and press one of these buttons to move the audio pointer to the start or end of the Sequence Grid.

40. LOCATE – Hold this button down to activate the secondary functions of the < / > and << / >> buttons (i.e., |< / >|

at the current playback position. This is a quick way to delete note events from your Sequence without having to

stop playback.

I/O & LEVEL CONTROLS

43. MIC IN / PHONO IN SWITCH – Use this switch to select the MIC IN or PHONO IN jacks on the rear panel. If you

are using a mic or other line-level audio source connected to the MIC IN jacks, select MIC IN. If you are using a

phono-level device like a turntable connected to the PHONO IN jacks, select PHONO IN.

44. REC GAIN – Use this knob to adjust the gain of the incoming signal from the MIC IN or PHONO IN jacks on the

rear panel. Monitor the recording level by viewing the level meter (LEDs) above the MIC/LINE / PHONO

SWITCH.

45. DIRECT MON – Use this knob to adjust the balance between the INPUT and COMP signals in the headphones.

The INPUT signal consists of the MIC IN or PHONO IN jacks – turn the knob all the way to INPUT for zero-

latency direct monitoring. The COMP signal is the normal software playback. When not recording, we

recommend turning this knob all the way to the COMP position.

46. MAIN VOLUME – Use this knob to adjust the volume level of the STEREO OUT jacks.

47. VINTAGE MODE – Press this to toggle through the available Vintage Modes. The MPC3000 and MPC60 settings

emulate the sounds of those classic MPCs, while the OTHER setting emulates the sound of vintage sampling

drum machines. When none of the LEDs are lit, Vintage Mode is off.

FRONT PANEL

1. FOOTSWITCH INPUTS – Connect optional 1/4" TS

footswitches to these inputs.

2. MIX KNOB – Use this knob to adjust the balance

between the MAIN and ASSIGN signals in your

headphones. MAIN is a summed mono signal of the left and right STEREO OUTS. ASSIGN is a summed mono

signal of ASSIGNABLE MIX OUTS 1 and 2.

3. HEADPHONES – Connect your headphones (not included) to one of these standard TRS outputs (1/8" or 1/4").

Use the MIX KNOB to determine what signal is heard in the headphones.
