signed to the pad in the 1 field and the 2 fields, will
be played at the same time.
04. Assign the samples to the 3 and 4 fields if necessary.
Switching between samples
using velocity
When you assign more than one sample to a pad, you can
switch between samples by the velocity used to hit the pad.
01. In the SAMPLE page of the PROGRAM mode, se-
lect the desired pad by hitting it.
02. Assign the samples to the 1 field and the 2 field.
03. Select the Range field in the same row with the 1
field, and set the velocity range to trigger the sample
assigned to the field.
The Range field has two fields to set the upper and
the lower limits. You can set the lower limit in the
left field and the upper limit in the right field. Here,
set the upper limit (the right field) to 63.
04. Select the Range field in the same row with the 2
field, and set the velocity range to trigger the sample
assigned to the field.
In this example, set the lower limit (the left field) to 64.
05. Check the result by hitting the pad.
If you hit the pad strongly, the MPC2500 will play
the sample assigned to the 2 field. If you hit the
pad weakly, the MPC2500 will play the sample as-
signed to the 1 field.
Tips : The pressure used to hit the pad will be displayed in the
128 steps (0 to 127). The maximum level is 127. This is the same
with the “MIDI velocity”, which indicates the pressure used to
play the keyboard.
Tips : You can also use the Q- Link slider to switch layers. For
more information, see the “Q-Link Slider” section on
page 49.
Changing the sample pitch
with velocity
You can control the sample pitch by velocity (how hard you
hit the pad).
01. In the SAMPLE page of the PROGRAM mode, hit
the pad you wish to edit.
The pad number display in the left of screen will
change according to the pad you hit.
02. Select the Tune field.
03. Press the [WINDOW] key.
The Pitch Modulation window will be displayed.
04. Select the V>Pitch field.
05. Adjust the field to the desired value while checking
the level by hitting the desired pad.
If you set this field to 0, the sample pitch will not
change with velocity. The larger you set the value,
the higher the pitch will be.
Playing several samples with
one pad
You can assign up to 4 samples to one pad. When you as-
sign more than one sample to a pad, you can play several
samples by hitting one pad.
01. In the SAMPLE page of the PROGRAM mode, se-
lect the desired pad.
The pad number display in the left of the screen will
change according to the pad you hit.
The Pgm field in the upper left corner displays the
name of the currently selected program. You can
change the currently selected program in the Pgm field.
02. Select the 1 field and select the sample to assign to
the pad.
You can select the samples currently saved in the
MPC2500’s memory by turning the DATA wheel.
03. Select the 2 field and select the sample to assign it to
the pad.
