Sending a Midi sample dump to an external

sampler

To send a Midi sample dump to an external sampler, press the

SOUNDS key, then type 6, then press SOFT KEY 2, <Send/recv>, and

the followin

screen will a

ear:

This is the "Send sample dump" screen. The screen fields and soft keys are

described below:

• The MIDI INPUT, MIDI OUTPUT, and FORMAT fields:

These fields operate exactly as in the "receive" screen, described in the

previous section.

• The SEND CHANNEL field:

When the sample dump is sent from the MPC60, it is sent over the midi

channel specified in this field. For this reason, it is important to set this field

to the same channel as the external sampler's midi receive channel.

NOTE: When an incoming "dump request" message is received, this

field is automatically changed to the channel of the dump request

message, and the dump is sent out on that channel.

• The SELECT SOUND TO <SEND> section:

The two fields in this section are only used if the send is initiated by pressing

the <Send> soft key- if the send is initiated by an externally generated

"dump request" message, the external sampler determines which sound will

be sent. The DRUM field is used to select the sound to be sent. As you

change the DRUM field, the NAME field changes to show the sound

currently loaded into that drum. Also, to the right of the contents of the

DRUM field is a number, used to indicate the internal sample number of the

selected sound. When initiating the transfer from the external sampler, use

these fields to view the number of the sound you wish to externally instruct

the MPC60 to send.

• SOFT KEY 1- <Send>:

After the on-screen fields have been set as desired, pressing this soft key will

cause the MPC60 to start sending the sample dump. At this point, the lower

two lines of the screen will change to:

1 2 ... 141 142 143 144 145 146 147 148 149 150 151 ... 227 228
