The TIMING CORRECT Key: Correcting Timing

Errors, Swing Timing

The MPC3000 corrects timing errors made as you are recording by

moving notes to the nearest perfect timing location. For example, if

the timing correct function is set to 1/16-notes, then all notes are

moved to the nearest perfect 1/16-note. The result is that all re-

corded notes play back as perfectly even 1/16-notes. It is also pos-

sible to correct the timing of notes after they have been recorded.

To inspect or change the timing correction settings, press TIMING

CORRECT while the MPC3000 is not playing. The following screen

will appear:

====== Timing Correct / Step Size ======

Note value:1/16 NOTE Swing%:50

Shift timing:LATER Shift amount: 0

========= Move Existing Notes ==========

Track: 1-(unused)

Ticks:001.01.00-001.01.00

Notes:ALL (Hit pads)

This screen presents various parameters relevant to the timing

correct function. A description of each of the fields follows:

• The Note value field:

Timing correction works by moving your recorded notes to a preset

note timing value. This field is used to select that note value. The

options are:

1.1/8 NOTE: All notes are moved to the nearest 1/8-note

2.1/8 TRPLT: All notes are moved to the nearest 1/8-note

triplet

3.1/16 NOTE: All notes are moved to the nearest 1/16-note

4.1/16 TRPLT: All notes are moved to the nearest 1/16-

note triplet

5.1/32 NOTE: All notes are moved to the nearest 1/32-note

6. 1/32 TRPLT: All notes are moved to the nearest 1/32-

note triplet

7. OFF(1/384): No timing correction—in this setting, the

highest resolution of the MPC3000 is used—96 divisions

per 1/4-note.

This value also affects two other functions in the MPC3000:

1. It sets the Note Repeat timing value, described later in

this chapter.
