Creating a program

Hold down SHIFT and press PROGRAM (6 on the numeric keypad), the "DRUM 1-4" select

screen will appear. As four programs can be played back at the same time, you can select which

of the programs (“DRUM 1 - 4”) you want to edit. If you are only playing back one program, select

DRUM 1.

1-NEW PROGRAM A will be displayed in the Pgm: field. If there are programs stored in the

MPC2000XL, you can select a program by moving the cursor to this field and rotating the DATA

wheel.

To create an entirely new program, use the displayed 1-NEW PROGRAM A and assign

sounds to/edit this program.

To create programs:

Load the sounds from disk (or sample the sounds) that you intend to use in the program.

(Refer to chapters “Creating and Editing Sounds” and “Disk Operation.”)

Hold down SHIFT and press PROGRAM (6 on the numeric pad) to display the Program Edit

screen.

Select from “DRUM 1 - 4” (F1 - F4).

Assign a note number to the drum pad. If you are not playing the MPC2000XL from a MIDI

device, such as a MIDI keyboard, the default settings can be used.

Assign a sound to the note number. This assigns the sound to the drum pad.

Press PARAMS [F2] and display the parameter screen and set the parameters of the sound.

Hold down SHIFT and press MIXER (7 on the numeric pad) to display the Mixer screen and

set the volume or pan of the sound. If you have installed the optional 8 Assignable Mix out or

effect boards, you can set them here also.

SAVE THE COMPLETED PROGRAM TO A DISK.
