sequence. To the right of this field is another field containing the

name for the selected sequence.

The Play/Record screen is one of many display screens available on

the MPC3000. Most of the panel keys present a unique screen, and

each screen has its own unique data fields. Try pressing a few of the

different keys in the Commands section of the panel, such as DISK

or TEMPO/SYNC.

The Numeric Keypad, Data Entry Control, and [+] & [–] Keys

Make sure that the Play/Record screen is showing. If not, press

MAIN SCREEN.

To change the data in a data field, move the cursor to the field and

type in the new number using the numeric keypad, followed by

ENTER. For example, to change to sequence number 2:

1. Move the cursor to the Seq field in the upper left corner;

2. Type 2, followed by the ENTER key.

Notice that the sequence name (located immediately to the right of

the sequence number) now changes automatically, because it must

now display the name of sequence 2.

Another use of the numeric keypad is to select from a list of menu

options presented on the screen. For example, pressing the PRO-

GRAM/SOUNDS key causes the following menu to be displayed:

===== Programs ===== ===== Sounds =====

1.Sel pgm, asn snds 5.Sample new sound

2.Envel,veloc,tune.. 6.Edit sound

3.Dynamic filter 7.Renam,cpy,delete

4.Copy, initialize 8.Audio trigger

Select option:

When a screen like this is displayed, you are expected to select one

of the options by pressing a single number—it is not necessary to

press ENTER afterwards. Press MAIN SCREEN to return to the

Play/Record screen.

Another way of changing on-screen data is to use the data entry

control. While the cursor is in a data field, if the data entry control

is rotated one step to the right, the on-screen number will

increment. If the data entry control is rotated one step to the left,

1 2 ... 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 ... 275 276
