Setting the loop

The loop feature plays the sample repeatedly. With the loop feature, you can play the sample from the loop point

to the end point repeatedly. To activate the loop feature, turn on the loop field, which is located in the upper right

corner of the LOOP page. When the loop feature is on, the MPC1000 first plays the part from the start point set

in the TRIM page to the end point, and then plays the part from the loop point set in the LOOP page to the end

point repeatedly.

Note: If you set the pad to ONE SHOT in the PROGRAM mode, the MPC1000 will play the sample assigned to that

pad like when the loop is off, even when the loop feature is on. When you use the loop feature, set the pad’s

play mode to NOTE ON. For more information, see the “Playing the sample while the pad is being hit” section

in the page 59.

Adjusting the loop point

01. In the TRIM mode, press the [F2] (LOOP) key.

The LOOP page will be displayed.

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 Lp (loop) field and adjust the loop point.

You can change the loop 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 using the [NUMERIC] key and pads. When you press the [NUMERIC]

key, its LED will blink, which indicates you can enter numbers with pads.

04. Hit the pad to check the loop point.

When you hit the pad, the MPC1000 plays the sample. The playback method varies depending on the pad.

If you hit the [PAD 13] (PLAY LOOP), the MPC1000 will play the sample from the loop point to the end point

repeatedly.

If you hit the [PAD 14] (PLAY TO), the MPC1000 will play the part before the loop point.

If you hit the [PAD 15] (PLAY FROM), the MPC1000 will play the sample from the loop point.

If you hit the [PAD 16] (PLAY ALL), the MPC1000 will play the whole sample.

If you hit any pad from the [PAD 1] to [PAD 12], the MPC1000 will first play from the start point to the end

point, and then play from the loop point to the end point repeatedly.

Adjusting the end point

05. Select the End field and adjust the end point.

Note: The end point of the loop is the same with the end point of the sample, which is set in the TRIM page.

If you change the end point in the LOOP page, the end point in the TRIM page will be changed as well.
