Chapter 10: MIXER Mode

In this section, you will learn about the mixer feature. In the MIXER mode, you can edit several settings while checking

the status of the pads graphically. This is done in the MIXER mode, which can be accessed by hitting the [MODE] button

and then the [PAD 7] (MIXER).

The screen will change, depending on the type of program on the current track being Sample Program, Keygroup

Program or Synth Program.

Sample Programs Synth and Keygroup Programs

Each pad is assignable to a different output bus and effects

bus, and can have its own level and pan settings.

Since synth programs are assigned chromatically across the

pads, each parameter is globally assigned.

Since keygroup programs have chromatically assigned samples

across the pads, each parameter is globally assigned.

Note: For more information about connecting to the external effects processor or mixer and about the operation of

them, see the operation manual of these devices.

Program Mixer

The MPC5000 has 8 outputs (assignable mix out) as well as the stereo out. Entire tracks of a sequence can be sent out

of these outputs. Additionally, Sample Programs can have their individual pads sent out of any one of these outputs

individually, as a mono signal or a stereo pair. Here, we will discuss setting the outputs of a Sample Program's specific

pads. This will allow you to send out individual pads to an external source, such as an effects processor, mixer, or a

recording device.

Tip: Each track's settings can be viewed in detail by selecting the track and pressing [WINDOW].
