========================================
<Play>
The fifth and sixth lines now contain four additional
fields—two decay thresholds and two new note number
assignments. These fields are used to play one of three
sounds depending on the envelope decay setting:
1. If the received note’s envelope decay is less than
or equal to the value in the first If over field,
then only the sound selected in the Sound field
plays.
2. If the received note’s envelope decay is greater
than the value in the first If over field but
less than or equal to the value in the second If
over
field, then only the note number selected in
the first use field plays.
3. If the received note’s envelope decay is greater
than the value in the second If over field, then
only the sound assigned to the note number
selected in the second use field plays.
(The second If over field is limited to values at
least one higher than the first If over field.)
COMMENT: This feature is provided primarily to emulate
the MPC60’s Hi-hat Decay Slider. Whenever the Hi-hat
pad on an MPC60 is played, one of three different sounds
(closed, loose or open hi-hat) plays depending on the slider
position. Also, the slider varies the envelope decay time of
the selected sound. On the MPC3000, this same function
can be achieved by selecting DCY SW in the Mode field.
Because Note Variation decay data in sequenced drum
notes overrides the program’s envelope decay setting, it
will also determine which of 3 sounds (e.g., closed, me-
dium and open hi-hats) will play while simultaneously
varying envelope decay of the selected sound. If an MPC60
SET file is loaded from disk, these parameters are auto-
matically set to emulate the MPC60 Hi-hat Decay Slider
as part of the conversion to an MPC3000 program.
COMMENT: Regardless of which pad plays, the indi-
vidual program parameter data (tuning, envelope, velocity
data, etc.) for each of the three note numbers are used but
only the main note numbers mixer data (mix volume and
pan, output assignment, and output/effects mix level) are
