TRANSPORT / RECORDING CONTROLS

33. PLAY – Press this button to play the Sequence from the audio pointer's current position.

34. PLAY START – Press this button to play the Sequence from its start point.

35. STOP – Press this button to stop playback.

36. REC – Press this button to record-arm the Sequence. Press PLAY or PLAY START to start

recording. Recording in this way (rather than using OVERDUB) erases the events of the

current Sequence. After the Sequence plays through once while recording, Overdub will be

enabled.

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., |< / >| and START/END, respectively).

41. ERASE – As a Sequence is playing, hold this button down and press a pad to delete the

note event for that pad at the current playback position. This is a quick way to delete note

events from your Sequence without having to stop playback.

42. TAP TEMPO – Press this button in time with the desired tempo to enter a new tempo (in

BPM) in the MPC software.

I/O & LEVEL CONTROLS

43. MIC/LINE / PHONO SWITCH – Use this switch to select the MIC IN or PHONO IN jacks on

the rear panel. If you are using a mic or 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. Be careful when setting this knob at higher

levels, which can cause the signal to distort.

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.
