Section 3: Recording sequences 81

3.19 The "Analyzing sequence. Please wait..."

message

Occasionally, and very infrequently, you will see the "Analyzing sequence.

Please wait..." message on the lowest line of the screen, requiring you to

wait briefly while the MPC60 does some "thinking". This occurs only

under the following conditions:

1. When you first select a sequence which is very long, then play it,

then press STOP.

2. When you first select a sequence which is very long, then press

any of the FAST FORWARD, REWIND, or LOCATE keys.

3. After you perform one of the EDIT operations.

4. In SONG mode, after you change any parameters in the song,

but only if the song contains many different sequences.

This waiting time is normal and is necessary in order for the MPC60 to

create what programmers call an "index table" for the newly selected

sequence. Once this process is done, all subsequent FAST FORWARD,

REWIND, and LOCATE operations will be immediate, as will be all

responses to incoming SMPTE, SONG POSITION POINTER, or MIDI

TIME CODE sync signals.
