64 Chapter 11: Editing a sample
Setting the loop
The loop feature plays the sample repeatedly. With the loop
feature, you can play the sample from the loop point to the
end point repeatedly. To activate the loop feature, turn on
the loop field, which is located in the upper right corner of
the LOOP page. When the loop feature is on, the MPC1000
first plays the part from the start point set in the TRIM page
to the end point, and then plays the part from the loop point
set in the LOOP page to the end point repeatedly.
Note : If you set the pad to ONE SHOT in the PROGRAM
mode, the MPC1000 will play the sample assigned to that pad
like when the loop is off, even when the loop feature is on. When
you use the loop feature, set the pad’s play mode to NOTE ON.
For more information, see the “Playing the sample while the pad
is being hit” section in the page 67.
