Editing the Master Effects
In addition to the four effects busses, the MPC5000 also has Master
Effects, used for polishing up the entire Sequence, affecting all sound
from the Main Outs.
In this section, you will learn how to access the master effects.
4 band EQ
This is the 4 band EQ (equalizer), which consists of two shelving type EQs for high frequency
and low frequency shaping and a 2 band parametric EQ. With the equalizers, you can boost or
lower a specific frequency to control the sound from the stereo out.
To access the MASTER EQ page, do the following:
01. Press [F3] (M.EQ).
02. Select the 'EQ' field and set it to 'ON'.
03. Edit the MASTER EQ Parameters as desired.
The controls for each band are organized into columns. Each of these controls can be edited by turning the [DATA] wheel, or by moving the
corresponding Q-LINK controls.
Compressor
This effect compresses the signal level that exceeds the selected level to make the volume even
as a whole. The fields are the same as those of the COMPRESSOR, which is selected in the buss
effects.
To access the MASTER COMPRESSOR, do the following
01. Press [F4] (M.COMP).
02. Select the 'Compressor' field and set it to 'ON'
03. Edit the MASTER COMPRESSOR parameters as desired.
The MASTER COMPRESSOR is a high quality compressor/limiter designed to be
transparent enough to be used to affect the entire mix. Each of these controls can be
edited by turning the [DATA] wheel, or by moving the corresponding Q-LINK controls.
Editing the Effect Set
The Effect Set is all the parameters of each effects bus, and all the settings of the master effects. Each Effect Set can
have completely different settings, and you can switch the effect sets in the 'Effect' field of the SELECT page.
Tip: You can switch the effect sets within a sequence by entering an EFFECT SELECT event to the sequence. For more
information, see 'STEP EDIT Mode' on page 47.
