Program Mode
Click the Prg button to activate the Q-Link Knobs' Program Mode.
To assign a parameter to a Q-Link Knob in the software:
1. Click a Q-Link Knob and move the mouse to select it for
assigning. The Qlink field will show the number of the
selected knob.
2. Click the Trig drop-down menu and select Min or Max. When you hold down the Q-Link Trigger
button on your MPC hardware and touch the top of one the Q-Link Knobs, the corresponding
parameters will jump to either its minimum (Min) or maximum (Max) value.
3. Click the Pad drop-down menu and select the desired pad you want to control. We recommend
using Q1 for Pad A01, Q2 for Pad A02 etc., so your controller mapping is easy to remember.
4. Click the Param (Parameter) drop-down menu and select the parameter you want to assign to the
Q-Link Knob:
o Sample Layer allows you to switch between Sample Layers 1 to 4. To use this function, each
layer must have an assigned sample with distinct (non-overlapping) velocities. See the Edit
Layers Section of the Program Edit Mode section to learn how to set sample layer velocities.
o Tuning controls the sample's pitch.
o Filter Cutoff controls the cutoff frequency of the filter. (Select a pad's filter type in Program Edit
Mode.)
o Filter Resonance controls the resonance value of the filter.
o Filter Env Amount controls the envelope amount of the filter.
o Qlink Pan controls the sample's panning position in the stereo field.
o Level controls the sample's volume level.
o Env Attack controls the attack time of the Amp Envelope.
o Env Decay controls the decay time of the Amp Envelope.
o Env Release controls the release time of the Amp Envelope
o Send 1 to 4 controls the corresponding FX send levels for the selected pad.
5. Click the Change drop-down menu to select the condition for changing a parameter. In most cases,
you should select Continuous, which changes the sound immediately when the Q-Link Knob is
moved. If Note On is selected, the Q-Link Knob's position will affect the sound only when its
corresponding pad is hit.
