The MPC5000 will not save the file with the same name. If you loaded the data from the memory card and edited only the

program, select NO.

YES

The MPC5000 will overwrite the data with the new data, which you are about to save. If you have loaded the data from the

memory card and edited the sample data, select YES.

Program Format

This allows you to choose whether to save the program in native MPC5000 format, or legacy MPC1000 format, for compatibility with

the MPC1000, MPC2500, and MPC500.

MPC5000

The Program will be saved in native MPC5000 format as a .50S file. This file will retain MPC5000 specific formatting, such

as simultaneous pad settings, random and cycle play modes, and filter settings.

MPC1000

The program will be saved in legacy MPC1000 format as a .PGM file. This file will be able to be opened on an MPC1000,

MPC2500 or MPC500, but will lose any MPC5000 specific formatting, such as such as simultaneous pad settings, random

and cycle play modes, and filter settings.

Tip: the MPC1000, MPC2500 and MPC500 have a memory maximum of 128MB, so be sure that the program you are

saving totals less than 128MB if you wish to open it on a legacy MPC.

Folder name field will be displayed. Enter the folder name in this field.

These files will be readable in other sequencers as standard MIDI Type 1 files, but non-MPC5000's will not recognize

MPC Specific information. This includes Track and Pad Mute, Q-Link and Mixer Automation and 16 Levels Tuning.

01. Select the destination folder for the sequence to be saved.
