Recording a sound

In this section, you will learn how to record sounds into the MPC1000

and assign these sounds so they can be played with the pads. This

way you are not restricted to only playing with the sounds that are

already included in the presets. Below is how to record an analog

signal from a CD player connected to the RECORD IN on the rear

panel of the MPC1000.

 Preparing the recording

01. Connect the LINE OUT of your CD player

to the RECORD IN of the MPC1000.

The analog input of the MPC1000 is a

standard phone jack, while the CD Player’s

LINE OUT is most likely a dual RCA jack.

To connect the CD player, you will need

two RCA to ¼ inch TS connectors.

LINE OUT

02. Once you have connected the CD player’s audio output to the RECORD IN of the MPC1000,

press the [ MODE ] button and then [ PAD 5 ] (RECORD).

This brings up the RECORD page, where you can change the settings for the recording.

03. Select the Input field, and select ANALOG.

04. Select the Time field and set the recording time.

The MPC1000 will finish the recording at the time set in this field. We recommend you set the time

a little longer than the actual recording time. You may also finish the recording manually.

05. Test the recording level by playing the CD. Check the level meter on screen and adjust the level

using the [ REC GAIN ] knob.

Important: If the meter goes too far to the right, the sound will be distorted, but if the sound level

is too low, the sample will gain a lot of noise. Set the level as high as possible but not reaching the

right edge.

 Starting the recording

06. Cue up your CD player with the audio that you would like to record.

07. Press [ F6 ] (RECORD) button while in the RECORD page.

The MPC1000 will be in record enable mode and the bottom of the screen will look like this:

This indicates that the MPC1000 is waiting for the incoming signal. The recording will begin

automatically when the CD begins playing.

Pressing the [ F5 ] (CANCEL) button cancels the record enable mode and resets the MPC1000.

Pressing the [ F6 ] (START) button manually starts the recording before you play the CD player.

Note: If you press the [ F6 ] (RECORD) button while a sound is already playing,

the MPC1000 will start the recording right after you press the button.
