numbers if you do not need to switch the programs. To
switch the programs, program change events are used.
You can enter these events in the STEP EDIT mode.

If a track has a program change event with the same
number set in this field, the MPC1000 switches the
program at the event while playing back the se-
quence. If you do not wish to switch the program
during the playback, set this field to OFF.
